Quantitative autoradiography has been used to localize sites at which L-[3H]-glutamate is displaced by NMDA. The labelling of these receptors was somewhat lower than in CA1 overall, being highest in s. oriens and s. radiatum and very low in s.pyramidale and s. lucidum Show

In contrast, a study using radioactive in situ hybridization histochemistry looked at mRNA coding an NMDA glutamate binding protein and at NMDAR1 (an NMDAR subunit) expression and found heavy labeling for both in the pyramidal and polymorphic layers but little in the molecular layer Show

The physiology of these receptors has been studied in outside-out patches from the proximal apical dendrites. It was found that an APV-sensitive component of the synaptic current evoked by fast aplication of glutamate could be isolated (and was presumed to be the result of NMDA channel opening). It was calculated that NMDA channels had a main conductance state conductance of 45 pS and it was confirmed that the channel was permeable to Ca2+. The NMDAR-mediated conductance was blocked by Mg2+ in a voltage-dependent way and by Zn2+ in a non-voltage-dependent fashion Show

Differential induction of potentiation and depression at commissural and mossy fiber synapses has also been shown by #R#158#E#. Recordings from membrane patches of dendrites and soma reveal fast and slow responses to fast application of glutamate, mediated by AMPA amd NMDA receptors, respectively Show
