Inhibition of opiate tolerance by non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists.
Our laboratory and others have previously reported that the non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, MK-801, interferes with the development of tolerance to the analgesic effects of morphine. The present studies were performed in order to further characterize the role of NMDA receptors in opiate tolerance. The results demonstrate that opiate tolerance is inhibited rapidl...
متن کاملDisruption of prepulse inhibition and increases in locomotor activity by competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists in rats.
Noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists such as phencyclidine are psychotomimetics and disrupt prepulse inhibition (PPI), a measure of sensorimotor gating that is deficient in schizophrenia. Systemically administered competitive NMDA receptor antagonists do not disrupt PPI in rats, leading to speculation that these compounds might have use as neuroprotective agents witho...
متن کاملBenzyl-polyamines: novel, potent N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists.
The effects of benzyl-polyamines were studied at recombinant N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. A number of mono-, di- and tri-benzyl polyamines, having benzyl substitutions on the terminal or central amino groups, inhibited responses of NR1/NR2 receptors in oocytes voltage-clamped at -70 mV. Among the most potent compounds was N1,N4, N8-tri-benzyl-spermi...
متن کاملCombined Therapy for Anti-N-methyl D-aspartate Receptor Encephalitis
Background Anti-N-methyl- d-aspartate receptor (anti-NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune neurological disorder that usually occurs as a paraneoplastic syndrome and is particularly associated with ovarian teratoma. Standard therapy for severe cases is not established and the prognosis in patients who do not respond to first-line treatment is poor. Case Report An 11-year-old boy complained ps...
متن کاملDelayed therapy of experimental ischemia with competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonists in rabbits.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonists are effective in limiting ischemic damage to the brain and spinal cord if treatment is begun at time of ischemic injury. More clinically relevant delayed therapy has not been adequately investigated. We report the temporal profile of efficacy for two competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonists in therapy of central nervous system ischemia...
