Consultado el 10 de noviembre de 2010. «Glutamate is the primary excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter in the human brain. It is important in synaptic plasticity, learning, and development. Its activity at the synaptic cleft is carefully balanced by receptor inactivation and glutamate reuptake. When this balance is upset, excess glutamate can itself become neurotoxic. ... This overactivation leads to an enzymatic cascade of events ultimately resulting in cell death.»
