Calcium permeability of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor channel in hippocampal neurons in culture.
Open accessAbstract
We have developed a quantitative description for calcium permeability of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor channel to permit predictions of the reversal potential and calcium influx at different voltages for different extracellular calcium concentrations. Increasing the external calcium concentration markedly shifted the reversal potential to positive values and simultaneously decreased the single-channel conductance at potentials negative to the reversal potential. Very simple quantitative descriptions of calcium permeation and channel block by calcium ions accurately characterize our data and permit the prediction of reversal potentials and magnitudes of calcium influx for a wide range of conditions.

The driving force for calcium entry is very large for a neuron at rest and the block of NMDARs by Mg2+ is incomplete even at resting potentials, so significant Ca enters the cell in response to synaptic stimulation during low-frequency synaptic stimulation.
“Because the driving force for calcium entry is very large for a neuron at rest and the block of NMDARs by Mg 2þ is incomplete even at resting potentials (Jahr and Stevens 1993), significant Ca enters the cell in response to synaptic stimulation (Sabatini et al. 2002;Bloodgood and Sabatini 2007;Bloodgood et al. 2009) during low-frequency synaptic stimulation.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
