Therapeutic potential of excitatory amino acid antagonists: channel blockers and 2,3-benzodiazepines.

NMDA and non-NMDA (AMPA/kainate) antagonists have potential in the treatment of a diverse group of neurological disorders associated with excessive activation of excitatory amino acid receptors. Here Michael Rogawski reviews recent progress in the development of therapeutically useful NMDA receptor channel blockers and a new class of selective AMPA/kainate receptor antagonists, the 2,3-benzodia...

Interactions of excitatory amino acid receptor antagonists with antiepileptic drugs in three basic models of experimental epilepsy.

Successful management of epilepsy still remains a vital problem. Despite using various combinations of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs), 20-25% of epileptic patients are insensitive to currently available medication. Therefore, there is a considerable need for finding a more effective AED or synergistic combinations of AEDs. Experimental and clinical data indicate that excitatory amino acid (EAA) rec...

Possible therapeutic applications of antagonists of excitatory amino acid neurotransmitters.

The dicarboxylic amino acids, glutamate and aspartate, are excitatory neurotransmitters in many brain regions. Recent animal experiments with analogues of dicarboxylic amino acids that block their excitatory actions, suggest that such selective antagonists could have important therapeutic uses in neurology and psychiatry. The strongest evidence concerns epilepsy and disorders of the motor syste...

Involvement of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in epileptiform bursting in the rat hippocampal slice.

The effects of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, D-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (D-APV), and other excitatory amino acid antagonists, were studied on CA1 pyramidal neurones treated with picrotoxin or bicuculline to reduce synaptic inhibition mediated by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Under these conditions epileptiform burst firing is readily produced by orthodromic stimu...

Seizures induce simultaneous GABAergic and glutamatergic transmission in the dentate gyrus-CA3 system.

Monosynaptic and polysynaptic responses of CA3 pyramidal cells (PC) to stimulation of the dentate gyrus (DG) are normally blocked by glutamate receptor antagonists (GluRAs). However, after kindled seizures, GluRAs block the monosynaptic excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) and isolate a monosynaptic inhibitory postsynaptic potential (IPSP), suggesting that mossy fibers release GABA. However...
