  1. GluN2B subunit-containing NMDA receptor antagonists prevent Abeta-mediated synaptic plasticity disruption in vivo

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2009-11-16 Treatments

    Currently, treatment with the relatively low-affinity NMDA receptor antagonist memantine provides limited benefit in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  2. Recent phase 3 clinical trials have shown that memantine is effective in the treatment of moderate-to-severe Alzheimer's disease and possibly vascular dementia (multi-infarct dementia).

  3. Cerebrospinal fluid and serum concentrations of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist memantine in man

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 1995-08-01 Treatments

    Memantine is an uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist with therapeutic potential in dementia, spasticity and Parkinson's disease.
