Different distributions of the AMPA-type glutamate receptor subunits were observed in the spinal cord. Immunolabelling with antibodies to both GluR1 and GluR2/3 revealed intensive staining in the dorsal horn, while staining for GluR2/3 and GluR4 revealed dense motor neurones in the ventral horn. These results suggest that in the rat spinal cord AMPA-type glutamate receptors vary in composition according to the region where they are expressed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAmpa-Type Glutamate ReceptorsExcitatory Amino AcidsSpinal CordArticle262Q4Q3221225WOS:000174792400004
