Difference between Glutamic acid and Substantia nigra

Glutamic acid vs. Substantia nigra

Glutamic acid (symbol Glu or E) is an α-amino acid with formula. The substantia nigra (SN) is a basal ganglia structure located in the midbrain that plays an important role in reward and movement.

Similarities between Glutamic acid and Substantia nigra

Glutamic acid and Substantia nigra have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Blood–brain barrier, Gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Hippocampus, Learning, Metabolism, Neuron, NMDA receptor, Radical (chemistry).

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Blood–brain barrier

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective semipermeable membrane barrier that separates the circulating blood from the brain and extracellular fluid in the central nervous system (CNS).

Gamma-Aminobutyric acid

gamma-Aminobutyric acid, or γ-aminobutyric acid, or GABA, is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system.

Hippocampus

The hippocampus (named after its resemblance to the seahorse, from the Greek ἱππόκαμπος, "seahorse" from ἵππος hippos, "horse" and κάμπος kampos, "sea monster") is a major component of the brains of humans and other vertebrates.

Learning

Learning is the process of acquiring new or modifying existing knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences.

Metabolism

Metabolism (from μεταβολή metabolē, "change") is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of organisms.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

NMDA receptor

The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (also known as the NMDA receptor or NMDAR), is a glutamate receptor and ion channel protein found in nerve cells.

Radical (chemistry)

In chemistry, a radical (more precisely, a free radical) is an atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired valence electron.
