NMDA receptor subunit and CaMKII changes in rat hippocampus induced by acute MDMA treatment: a mechanism for learning impairment
2004
Rationale
Cognitive deficits have been reported in recreational 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, “ecstasy”) users. In rats and other animal species, acute MDMA administration produces an impairment in passive avoidance and other learning tasks. Different studies have shown that this learning deficit is not strictly related to the pronounced serotonin (5-HT) depletion induced by the drug.
