Abstract
⺠Use-dependent recovery of NMDAR currents after MK-801 blockade is boosted by Mg2+. ⺠Use-dependent recovery is also accelerated by memantine. ⺠NMDA + Mg2+ can trigger 45% MK-801 dissociation in only 10 min ⺠NMDA + Mg2+ can promote death in neurons with NMDARs 100% pre-blocked by MK-801. ⺠Care should be taken not to overestimate the stability of MK-801 blockade of NMDARs.
