NMDAR2B Antibodies

NMDA receptor 2B is an ion channels activated by glutamate. NMDA receptors are among the most studied receptors in neuroscience because they are involved in neuronal cell development and plasticity, a cellular correlate for learning. NMDA receptors are also implicated in several disorders of the central nervous system including epilepsy and ischemic neuronal cell death. NMDA receptors like NMDAR2B also appear to be a target for ethanol at physiological concentrations and therefore may play a significant role in alcoholism.
