Pathophysiology of the glutamate and the glycine transporters: new therapeutic targets.

The role of the glutamate and glycine transporters in glutamatergic and glycinergic neurotransmission and in the functioning of the nervous system is described. The pathological consequences of imbalances in these signaling pathways are pointed out. We also describe its involvement in pathologies such as schizophrenia, chronic pain, cerebral ischemia, diseases such as hereditary hyperekplexia and… Continuar lendo Pathophysiology of the glutamate and the glycine transporters: new therapeutic targets.
