Antidepressant Effects of (+)-MK-801 and (-)-MK-801 in the Social Defeat Stress Model
BACKGROUND Current data on antidepressant action of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, (+)-MK-801, is inconsistent. This study was conducted to examine the effects of (+)-MK-801 and its less potent stereoisomer, (-)-MK-801, in the social defeat stress model of depression. METHODS The antidepressant effects of (+)-MK-801 (0.1mg/kg) and (-)-MK-801 (0.1mg/kg) in the social defeat stre...
متن کاملTetrodotoxin blocks native cardiac L-type calcium channels but not CaV1.2 channels expressed in HEK cells.
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) has been believed for a long time to be a selective inhibitor of voltage-gated fast Na(+) channels in excitable tissues, including mammalian myocardium. Recently TTX has been shown to block cardiac L-type Ca(2+) current (ICa,L). Furthermore, this inhibition was ascribed to binding of TTX to the outer pore of the Ca(2+) channel, contributing to the selectivity filter region. I...
متن کاملMK-801 is a potent nematocidal agent. Characterization of MK-801 binding sites in Caenorhabditis elegans.
MK-801, an N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist in mammalian brain tissue, is a potent nematocidal agent. Specific MK-801 binding sites have been identified and characterized in a membrane fraction prepared from the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The high-affinity MK-801 binding site has an apparent dissociation constant, Kd, of 225 nM. Unlike the MK-801 binding site in mammalian tissu...
متن کاملDifferential binding properties of [3H]dextrorphan and [3H]MK-801 in heterologously expressed NMDA receptors.
The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists: MK-801, phencyclidine and ketamine are open-channel blockers with limited clinical value due to psychotomimetic effects. Similarly, the psychotomimetic effects of the dextrorotatory opioids, dextromethorphan and its metabolite dextrorphan, derive from their NMDAR antagonist actions. Differences in the use dependency of blockade, however, su...
متن کاملThe Natural Flavone Acacetin Blocks Small Conductance Ca2+-Activated K+ Channels Stably Expressed in HEK 293 Cells
The natural flavone acacetin inhibits several voltage-gated potassium currents in atrial myocytes, and has anti-atrial fibrillation (AF) effect in experimental AF models. The present study investigates whether acacetin inhibits the Ca2+-activated potassium (KCa) currents, including small conductance (SKCa1, SKCa2, and SKCa3), intermediate conductance (IKCa), and large-conductance (BKCa) channel...
