Would you expect ALL mammalian neurons to have functional NMDA receptors? Please explain your answers. I am looking for any feedback you can provide. I am happy to receive any feedback you may offer on this topic. Thanks much!
I am recording intracellularly from the neocortex of a mouse. If I place my electrode on one set of pyramidal neurons (Layer 2) and add fenfluramine (a serotonin uptake blocker), whithin 5 minutes the neurons produce GREATER amount of action potentials. But when I place fenfluramine while recording from another set of pyramida
