| kainic acid | An agonist for the K type excitatory amino acid receptor. It can act as an excitotoxin producing symptoms similar to those of Huntingdon's chorea and is also used as an anthelminthic drug. Originally isolated from the alga Digenea simplex. The receptor is an amino acid gated ion channel, one of several types gated by the transmitter. (18 Nov 1997) |

| receptors, kainic acid | Cell surface proteins that bind glutamate and directly gate ion channels. Kainic acid receptors were originally discriminated from other glutamate receptors by their affinity for the agonist kainic acid. Activation of kainic acid receptors is generally excitatory to cells. Subtypes have been cloned, and for some the traditional distinction from ampa receptors may not apply. (12 Dec 1998) |

| kainic acid |
an excitotoxin found in the seaweed Diginea simplex; it is 30 to 100 times as potent as glutamic acid and is used experimentally to study the excitatory mechanisms of glutamate transmitters.
