MODULATION OF N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE RECEPTOR RESPONSES WITH S-SUBSTITUTED DERIVATIVES OF GLUTATHIONE

摘要

The present invention involves a method of treating pain, neurological diseases and neuronal injury in a mammal by utilizing compounds that interact with and modify one of the redox sites of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in said mammal. These compounds include S-substituted derivatives of glutathione which modulate or regulate the NMDA glutamate receptor.
