Abstract: Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the brain, and it is widely accepted to play a role in synaptic plasticity and excitotoxic cell death. Glutamate binds to several receptors, including ionotropic N-methyl-d-Aspartate receptor (NMDAR),… read more here.

Abstract: The agranular insular cortex (AIC) has recently been investigated by the alcohol field because of its connectivity to and modulatory control over limbic and brainstem regions implicated in alcohol use disorder (AUD), and because it… read more here.
