AMPA, KA and NMDA receptors are expressed in the rat DRG neurones

THE localization of AMPA receptor subunits (GluR1–4), a KA receptor subunit (GluRS) and
NMDA receptor sub-units (NR1 and NRgbs; the glutamate binding subunits of an NMDA
receptor complex) was investigated using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization
histo-chemistry in the rat dorsal root ganglion. Small neurones expressed GluR1-, GluR2/3-
like immunoreactivities and GluRS, NR1, NRgbs mRNAs, while large neurones expressed
GluR2/3-like immunoreactivity and NR1 and NRgbs mRNAs. These data suggest that the …
