Excitatory amino acids (EAAs), usually glutamate, activate the greatest excitatory system in the vertebrate brain. EAAs mediate synaptic transmission and control the stability and efficiency of synaptic connections. Moreover, EAAs provide the postsynaptic neurone with chemical cues for survival and maturation. Improper activation of EAA receptors can lead to neurotoxicity and be involved in the pathogenesis of certain neurological diseases

Abstract

Excitatory amino acids (EAAs), usually glutamate, activate the greatest excitatory system in the vertebrate brain. EAAs mediate synaptic transmission and control the stability and efficiency of synaptic connections. Moreover, EAAs provide the postsynaptic neurone with chemical cues for survival and maturation. Improper activation of EAA receptors can lead to neurotoxicity and be involved in the pathogenesis of certain neurological diseases

Physiology considers resources that study the regulation of biological functions at the level of the whole organism. This includes research from biochemical, cell biological and whole system studies of human and animal physiology. Comparative physiology, biological rhythms, and physiological measurement are also included. Resources emphasizing cellular regulation, or the physiology of specific organs are excluded and are covered in the Cell & Developmental Biology and Medical Research: Organs & Systems categories.
