متن کاملCombined Therapy for Anti-N-methyl D-aspartate Receptor Encephalitis
Background Anti-N-methyl- d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune neurological disorder that usually occurs as a paraneoplastic syndrome and is particularly associated with ovarian teratoma. Standard therapy for severe cases is not established and the prognosis in patients who do not respond to first-line treatment is poor. Case Report An 11-year-old boy complained ps...
متن کاملAcid tests of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor gating basics.
In this issue of Molecular Pharmacology, Low et al. (2003) delve into the mechanisms by which pH modulates the glutamate receptor subtype specifically activated by N–methylD-aspartate (NMDA). Based on a combination of scanning mutagenesis, patch clamp physiology, and molecular modeling, the authors conclude that amino acids involved in NMDA receptor modulation by protons are clustered in region...
متن کاملPediatric anti-N methyl D aspartate receptor encephalitis
Anti-N Methyl D Aspartate Receptor encephalitis (anti-NMDARE) is a recently defined disease, which is probably more under-recognized than rare. We report a case of anti-NMDARE in a 13-years-old girl, who presented with intractable seizures. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case of pediatric anti-NMDARE being reported from India. The need for a greater awareness of this disease a...
متن کاملThe N-Methyl-D-Aspartate Receptor in Cerebral Ischemia
Excitotoxicity is a major mechanism of neuronal damage in cerebral ischemia and is mediated largely by neuronal N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR). This review presents the structural and functional alterations in NMDAR after an ischemic insult, including the antagonistic roles different NMDAR sub-types play in the post-ischemic period. By elucidating these molecular changes and the effects...
