The Impact of ROS Scavenging on NMDA and AMPA Receptor Whole Cell Currents in Pyramidal Neurons of the Anoxia Tolerant Western Painted Turtle
Extended periods of oxygen deprivation cause brain death in mammals but the western painted turtle overwinters in anoxic mud for months without damage. Neural protection is achieved through decreases in the whole cell currents of N-methyl-D-aspartate and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepro...
