Where this comes from

Abstract

EAAs appear to have a major role in both the development and the propagation of seizures. However, since EAAs have an important role in learning and brain plasticity, it is important that future investigators study not only the antiepileptic and neuroprotective properties of EAA antagonists, but also their effects on learning, memory, and behavior.
