dopamine neurons
Dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra have been immunolabelled with an antibody (red) and a nuclear stain (blue) to enable us to determine the density of dopamine neurons under different conditions. NMDA reduces the density, and this effect is reversed by memantine. From Wild et al., 2013.

Electrophysiology
The use-dependent NMDA receptor antagonist, memantine reduces NMDA receptor mediated synaptic currents in response to high frequency stimulation, but not those in response to low frequency stimulation. From Wild et al., 2013.
