Role of nonsynaptic GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors in excitotoxicity: Evidence that fluoxetine selectively inhibits these receptors and may have neuroprotective effects

Highlights ► Role of extrasynaptic GluN2B subunit-containing NMDA receptors in excitotoxicity. ► Role of synaptic GluN2A subunit-containing NMDA receptors in neuroprotection. ► Effect of fluoxetine. ► Clinical studies with different glutamate receptor antagonists. ► Selective GluN2B subunit-containi...
