Alcohol Tolerance and Treatment
N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors play a vital role in drug sensitization pathways. MK-801 is an NMDA receptor antagonist, meaning it blocks the activity of these receptors. By studying the effects of MK-801 on NMDA receptors in animal models, researchers can better understand how these receptors contribute to drug sensitization. Some studies have shown that opioid addicts …
