Original publication · Original publication · Original publication

Recorded summary

This review explains how NMDA receptor trafficking and subunit composition influence synaptic plasticity, and discusses their relevance to neuropsychiatric disorders. It provides background for interpreting activity-dependent changes in excitatory signalling.

Recorded limitations

NMDA denotes a receptor family. This review does not establish a direct OXTR interaction or the efficacy of a particular intervention.

Evidence and provenance

Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.
