Glutamatergic Neurotransmission in the Hippocampus

This chapter will summarize key data about glutamatergic transmission in the hippocampus. Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter similar to other CNS regions. Biophysical properties of various receptors and channels will be described and functional relevance of these parameters discussed.
