N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2A expression intensity in brain regions of adult male SD rats

doi:10.3969/j.issn.0529-1356.2013.04.003

Abstract

Abstract:

Objective N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is an important excitatory receptor within the central nervous system. Its 2A subunit is a critical functional subunit. There is no comprehensive data about NMDAR _2A expression intensity
in rat brain. Methods In this experiment, we detected NMDAR _2Aexpression in the brain of adult male SD rat (n=6) with immunohistochemistry staining and image analysis. Results We drew the expression intensity atlas of rat brain based on the
immunohistochemical staining intensity. Conclusion These data can provide a reference for in situ detection of NMDAR _2Ain related experiments.
