Glycine triggers a non-ionotropic activity of GluN2A-containing NMDA receptors to confer neuroprotection

Ionotropic activation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) requires agonist glutamate and co-agonist glycine. Here we show that glycine enhances the activation of cell survival-promoting kinase Akt in cultured cortical neurons in which both the channel activity of NMDARs and the glycine receptors are pre-inhi...
