5-Iodowillardiine is a selective agonist for the kainate receptor, with only limited effects at the AMPA receptor.[1] It is selective for kainate receptors composed of GluR5 subunits.[2][3] It is an excitotoxic neurotoxin in vivo,[4][5] but has proved highly useful for characterising the subtypes and function of the various kainate receptors in the brain and spinal cord.[6][7][8]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
