The competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist CGS 19755 attenuates the rate-decreasing effects of NMDA in rhesus monkeys without producing ketamine-like discriminative stimulus effects.

چکیده
The purported competitive excitatory amino acid antagonist CGS 19755 was compared to the non-competitive antagonists ketamine and MK-801 in three rhesus monkeys discriminating between 1.78 mg/kg of ketamine and saline while responding under a fixed-ratio 100 schedule of food presentation. MK-801 substituted completely for the ketamine discriminative stimulus and was 32 times more potent than ketamine as a discriminative stimulus. CGS 19755 was studied using single and cumulative dosing procedures up to a dose of 10.0 mg/kg; for all conditions, CGS 19755 produced responding exclusively on the saline lever and had only modest rate-decreasing effects. N-Methyl-D-aspartate administered alone also did not produce ketamine-appropriate responding but did decrease response rates in a dose-related manner. N-Methyl-D-aspartate eliminated responding in all monkeys at doses of 5.6-10.0 mg/kg. MK-801 and ketamine antagonized the rate-decreasing effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate, however, ketamine was most effective as an antagonist at doses that decreased response rates when administered alone. CGS 19755 also attenuated the rate-decreasing effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate and shifted the N-methyl-D-aspartate dose-effect curve more than 5-fold to the right. The magnitude of antagonism of N-methyl-D-aspartate appeared to be somewhat greater with CGS 19755 than with MK-801 or ketamine. Thus, a competitive (CGS 19755) and some non-competitive (MK-801 and ketamine) excitatory amino acid antagonists can attenuate the rate-decreasing effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Analgesic, anesthetic, and respiratory effects of the competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist CGS 19755 in rhesus monkeys.
The competitive excitatory amino acid antagonist cis-4-phosphonomethyl-2-piperidine-carboxylic acid (CGS 19755) increased the latency for monkeys to remove their tails from warm water (analgesia); larger doses produced ataxia, loss of righting, salivation, and eliminated reactivity to stimulation (anesthesia). CGS 19755 decreased tidal volume and had little effect on frequency of respiration. A...

The effects of several N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptorand sigma receptor-related compounds on the discriminative stimulus effects of phencyclidine (PCP) were examined in rats trained to discriminate PCP (1.5 mg/kg, i.p.) from saline under a two-lever fixed ratio 20 schedule of food reinforcement. PCP produced a dose-dependent increase in PCP-appropriate responding. A non-competitive NMDA r...
متن کاملN-methyl-D-aspartate receptor channel blocker-like discriminative stimulus effects of nitrous oxide gas.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) gas is a widely used anesthetic adjunct in dentistry and medicine that is also commonly abused. Studies have shown that N2O alters the function of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA), GABAA, opioid, and serotonin receptors among others. However, the receptors systems underlying the abuse-related central nervous system effects of N2O are unclear. The present study explores the re...

It has been reported that ketamine as an uncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist has also non-NMDA receptor antagonist properties. We recently found that ketamine (20 ?M) affected differently induction of NMDA receptor-mediated long-term potentiation (LTP) when administered 30 min prior to tetanic Primed-Bursts (PBs) stimulation. On the other hand, ketamine also influenced...
