Strain differences in the distribution of N-methyl-d-aspartate and gamma (γ)-aminobutyric acid-A receptors in rat brain

Given that these two rat strains differ in their behavioural, endocrine and neurochemical profile, the observed strain differences in NMDA and GABAA receptor binding suggest that these two neurotransmitter systems may be involved in the depressive and stress-sensitive phenotype of the WKY rat strain.
