Abstract:
Glutamate is one of the important neurotransmitters and participates in micturition reflex in the cerebral cortex,pons and spinal cord micturition center.Glutamate receptors include metabotropic and ionotropic and the latter again include NMDA and non-NMDA receptors.They all have different effects on micturition reflex.NMDA and non-NMDA receptors may interact on each other,and so may glutamate and other neurotransmitters in the central nervous system.
