Abstract

D-serine is used to treat a neurological disorder, such as epilepsy, that cases seizures. A composition comprising D-serine is artificially administered to a patient in an effective amount by selectively contacting a region of the patient's brain with the composition. The region of the brain selectively contacted with the composition has cells expressing GluN3 subunit-containing triheteromeric NMDARs.
