NMDA Activators

Santa Cruz Biotechnology now offers a broad range of NMDA Activators. Glutamate receptors mediate most excitatory neurotransmission in the brain and play an important role in neural plasticity, neural development and neurodegeneration. Ionotropic glutamate receptors are categorized into NMDA receptors and kainate/AMPA receptors, both of which contain glutamate-gated, cation-specific ion channels. NMDA Activators offered by Santa Cruz activate NMDA and, in some cases, other neurotransmission and neural development related proteins.
