Ibotenic acid
Ibotenic acid acts as a dual agonist, activating both NMDA-type and metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) . This property makes it a valuable research tool for studying excitatory neurotransmission, neurotoxicity, and glutamate receptor function in various in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
