NMDA receptor ion channel activation detected in vivo with [ 18 F]GE-179 PET after electrical stimulation of rat hippocampus

The positron emission tomography (PET) tracer [18F]GE-179 binds to the phencyclidine (PCP) site in the open N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor ion channel (NMDAR-IC). To demonstrate that PET can visuali...
