Abstract

Analysis of electrophysiological properties of NMDARs and NMDAR-mediated synaptic transmission in identified neurons and synapses in brain slices is a major step in understanding their function in normal and pathological neuronal brain networks. In many central synapses excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) are mediated by excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate that activates colocalized AMPAR and NMDAR generating a complex EPSC. Here, we describe the methods commonly used in brain slices to study the electrophysiological properties of NMDAR-mediated component of spontaneous or evoked EPSCs by extracellular stimulation or by stimulating synaptically connected neurons. This approach is based on whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, pharmacological tools, and the analysis of the difference in temporal parameters between the AMPA and NMDA receptors. It allows pinpointing of the basic functional properties of NMDARs that are specific to identified brain regions, neurons, and synapses of wild-type or genetically manipulated mice.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 March 2024.
All research outputs
#7,597,440
of 25,918,104 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#2,308
of 14,416 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#129,169
of 427,274 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#238
of 1,093 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,918,104 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,416 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 427,274 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,093 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
