Effects of the noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist phencyclidine (PCP) and competitive antagonists 3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP) and 2-amino-4,5-(1,2-cyclohexyl)-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid (NPC 12626) were studied in 6 squirrel monkeys trained under a multiple schedule of unpunished and punished lever pressing. PCP (0.03-0.3 mg/kg, IM) failed to produce increases in punished responding, even at doses that produced extreme response-rate decreases in nonpunishment components. Similarly, CPP (1-17 mg/kg) and NPC 12626 (3-30 mg/kg) did not produce increases in punished responding at any dose tested. Repeated administration of NPC 12626 (17 mg/kg) for 4 consecutive days did not result in increased rates of punished responding. The benzodiazepine anxiolytic midazolam (0.3 mg/kg) and, to a lesser extent, the barbiturate pentobarbital (5.6 mg/kg), produced increases in punished responding in the same subjects at doses that did not markedly affect unpunished responding. Coadministration of PCP (0.03 mg/kg) with doses of midazolam ranging from 0.03-3 mg/kg did not produce changes in the midazolam dose-response curve for either unpunished or punished responding. These results fail to support findings in rats that NMDA antagonists produce antipunishment effects similar to those of benzodiazepine anxiolytics.

The sigma receptor ligands, (+)-pentazocine and (+)-SKF 10,047, were found to increase dopamine metabolism (DOPAC, HVA) and release (3-MT) in both the striatum and olfactory tubercle of the rat, in a dose-dependent manner, after central as well as peripheral administration. The effect of (+)-SKF 10,047 was stereospecific. The increase in dopamine metabolism was not blocked by naloxone pretreatment, excluding an action via opioid receptors. More interestingly, this modulation was blocked by pretreatment with the NMDA receptor antagonist, CPP. Neither sigma ligand exhibited any affinity for D1 or D2 dopamine receptors or for NMDA, PCP or NMDA-associated glycine receptors. Sigma receptors thus appear to modulate dopaminergic function in both A9 and A10 projections. This modulation appears to involve a functional interaction with NMDA receptors or an NMDA-utilizing synapse downstream to neurons modulated by sigma receptors.

The active site of minaprine (3-(2-morpholinoethylamino)-4-methyl-6-phenylpyridazine) was studied by means of receptor binding and its effect on acetylcholine (ACh) release in rat hippocampus. [3H]Minaprine binding to the hippocampal membrane was inhibited by minaprine, 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) and phencyclidine (PCP) dose-dependently, whereas it was not inhibited by L-glutamate (L-Glu), N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV), 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine ((+)3-PPP) or ketamine. [3H]PCP binding was inhibited by PCP and APV in an extensively washed hippocampal membrane. Minaprine, however, failed to inhibit the [3H]PCP binding. [3H]3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP) binding was inhibited by L-Glu but not by minaprine. NMDA-evoked [3H]ACh release from the rat hippocampal slices was effectively inhibited by PCP. However, minaprine had no effect on the NMDA-evoked [3H]ACh release. Similar results were obtained from the study of [3H]ACh release in the striatum. These results suggest that minaprine exerts its action via the voltage-dependent K+ channel but not via the NMDA receptor-channel complex or sigma receptor.

3-((+-)-2-Carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP), phencyclidine (PCP) and diazepam were evaluated for their ability to produce a deficit for a single trial step-through passive avoidance response in rats. Pretraining administration with CPP at doses ranging from 2.0 to 10.0 mg/kg s.c. significantly decreased retention latencies 24 h after passive avoidance training. Similar effects were found with PCP at doses ranging from 0.5 to 1.7 mg/kg s.c. and diazepam at doses between 5.0-18.0 mg/kg s.c. Pretraining administration with the benzodiazepine antagonist, RO15-1788 at doses between 0.1-15 mg/kg s.c., did not alter retention latencies. Co-administration of RO15-1788 (0.01-15.0 mg/kg s.c.) with CPP (6.0 mg/kg s.c.) or PCP (1.0 mg/kg s.c.) failed to block decreases in latencies. However, when RO15-1788 was co-administered with diazepam (9.0 mg/kg s.c.) a dose-related antagonism of diazepam's effects were found. These results suggest that the behavioral actions of CPP and PCP on passive avoidance retention are not mediated via the benzodiazepine receptor complex.

Several lines of evidence suggest a tight functional coupling between N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and phencyclidine (PCP) receptors. The effects of PCP receptor agonists (PCP, dexoxadrol, ketamine and MK-801) and NMDA receptor antagonists, cis-4-phosphonomethyl-2-piperidine carboxylic acid (CGS-19755) and 3-(2-carboxypiperizin-4-yl)-propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP), have been examined on the metabolism of dopamine in the mesocortex, with a view of studying the coupling between these two receptor systems. Phencyclidine receptor agonists selectively increased the metabolism of dopamine in the mesocortex without affecting the metabolism of dopamine in the striatum. N-Methyl-D-aspartate and the competitive antagonists of NMDA receptors did not effect the metabolism of dopamine, neither did the sigma receptor ligands, 1,3-di-(2-tolyl)guanidine (DTG) and rimcazole. Rimcazole also did not affect the increases in the metabolism of dopamine in the mesocortex, seen after MK-801. These data indicate that dopaminergic neurons in the mesocortex are positively modulated by PCP receptors but tentatively suggest that those recognition sites for PCP are not coupled to NMDA receptors.

The experiments examined the ability of competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists (CPP, CGS 19755), noncompetitive NMDA antagonists [phencyclidine (PCP), ketamine, MK-801], other putative excitatory amino acid antagonists (ifenprodil, PK 26124), and anticonvulsants (pentobarbital, chlordiazepoxide) to antagonize the discriminative stimulus (DS) effects of NMDA and to produce PCP-like DS effects. Rats were trained to discriminate NMDA (40 mg/kg) from saline. The DS effects of NMDA were blocked by the competitive NMDA antagonists but were antagonized at best partially by the other drugs tested. The response rate decreasing effects of NMDA were attenuated to varied extents by both the competitive and the noncompetitive NMDA antagonists. Some competitive and noncompetitive NMDA antagonists partially mimicked NMDA. To further examine their NMDA-antagonist properties, the compounds were also tested for antagonism of NMDA (160 mg/kg)-induced lethality in mice; only the competitive and noncompetitive NMDA antagonists completely protected against NMDA-induced lethality. In rats discriminating PCP (2.5 mg/kg) from saline, the competitive NMDA antagonists produced less drug-appropriate responding than the noncompetitive NMDA antagonists but more than was produced by the other drugs tested. The extent to which compounds antagonize behavioral effects of NMDA and produce PCP-like DS effects may depend partly on the effect measured and on the component of the NMDA receptor complex with which they interact. Although the competitive NMDA antagonists were more effective in blocking NMDA than the other drugs tested, they failed to act as pure antagonists of the DS effects of NMDA.

The effects of agonists of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor can be blocked by dissociative anesthetics such as phencyclidine (PCP) in a non-competitive manner. This finding together with the fact that ligand binding to the PCP receptor is dependent on the presence of L-glutamate has led to the suggestion that there may exist an NMDA/PCP receptor complex in mammalian brain tissue. This concept has been extended to the inclusion of a cation channel based on the inhibitory actions of the divalent cation, magnesium. Evaluation of the binding of tritiated TCP (thienylcyclohexylpiperidine) a high affinity ligand for the PCP receptor, under four conditions: in basal, well washed rat cortical membranes; in the presence of L-glutamate; in the presence of magnesium; and in the presence of both magnesium and L-glutamate, with NMDA antagonists and dissociative anesthetics showed that these agents had distinct profiles of activity at the PCP receptor. Furthermore, while both classes of compound could modulate TCP binding, only NMDA receptor antagonists inhibited the binding of tritiated CPP (3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid) which labels central NMDA recognition sites. The present data support the existence of an NMDA/PCP receptor complex in mammalian brain tissue. The data currently available would suggest however, that the interface is sequentially NMDA to PCP with the latter site affecting NMDA-mediated responses at a step intermediate between receptor activation and physiological response.

1. The whole-cell voltage-clamp technique was used to study the effects of extracellular ATP on smooth muscle cells isolated from the rat vas deferens. 2. ATP (1-200 microM) elicited an inward-rectifying current that was rapid in onset (less than or equal to 100 ms), reached a peak value that depended on [ATP], and desensitized in the continued presence of ATP (half-time approximately 2 s). 3. Cells recovered from desensitization when incubated in the absence of ATP (resensitization half-time approximately 2 min). 4. A comparison was made of the ability of ATP and several of its structural analogues to stimulate inward current at a negative holding potential. ATP was by far the most effective compound among the series ATP, ADP, AMP, adenosine, GTP, UTP and ITP. ADP elicited a current that was 20-25% as large as that produced by ATP, while the other compounds were ineffective at a concentration which produced a maximal ATP response. 5. AMP-CPP (alpha, beta-methylene ATP), AMP-PCP (beta, gamma-methylene ATP), and AMP-PNP (beta, gamma-imido ATP), which are relatively resistant to hydrolysis, were similarly compared to ATP. While none of these analogues elicited a current resembling the ATP-induced current, AMP-CPP and AMP-PNP each produced a small, relatively sustained inward current; AMP-PCP had little or no effect. 6. The ATP-sensitive conductance is cation selective, but does not appear to discriminate strongly between Na+, K+ and Mg2+. 7. Analysis of the fluctuations which accompany the ATP-induced current suggests that ATP controls a population of channels with a unitary current greater than 0.5 pA at -130 mV. 8. The ATP-evoked current discussed in this report may be responsible for the depolarizing effect of ATP previously described in multicellular preparations of the vas deferens.

The selective non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, MK-801, potently blocked convulsions induced in the mouse by N-methyl-DL-aspartic acid (NMDLA) with an i.v. ED50 dose of 0.2 mg/kg. Similar doses of MK-801 were also effective in blocking seizures induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ), electroshock and by sound in audiogenic seizure-prone animals. Other less selective non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonists including phencyclidine (PCP), thienylcyclohexylpiperidine (TCP), (+)-N-allylnormetazocine [+)-NANM, (+)-SKF 10,047) and ketamine also blocked NMDLA-induced seizures with a rank order of potency of MK-801 greater than PCP greater than TCP = (+)-NANM greater than ketamine. The competitive NMDA receptor antagonist, 3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP) blocked NMDLA-induced seizures with an ED50 of 4.5 mg/kg, 22- and 560-fold more potently than the competitive antagonists, 2-DL-amino-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid (2-APH) and 2-DL-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (2-APV), respectively. MK-801 was the most potent of the non-competitive antagonists to induce a motor syndrome including head weaving, body rolling, increased locomotion and ataxia, characteristic of the behavioural response to PCP in the mouse. The syndrome was also present following injection of the competitive NMDA receptor antagonists, although they were generally less potent (probably a reflection of poor brain penetration) and less efficacious than the non-competitive antagonists. For all compounds except CPP, the anticonvulsant ED50 dose was close to the minimum effective dose to induce motor stimulation: CPP was 5- to 10-fold more potent as an anticonvulsant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

1. Convulsions were induced reproducibly by intracerebroventricular injection of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) to conscious mice. 2. Competitive (carboxypiperazine-propylphosphonic acid, CPP; 2-amino-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid, AP7) and non-competitive (MK801; phencyclidine, PCP; thienylcyclohexylpiperidine, TCP; dextrorphan; dextromethorphan) NMDA antagonists prevented NMDA-induced convulsions. 3. Benzodiazepine receptor agonists and partial agonists (triazolam, diazepam, clonazepam, Ro 16-6028), classical anticonvulsants (diphenylhydantoin, phenobarbitone, sodium valproate) and meprobamate were also found to prevent NMDA-induced convulsions. 4. Flumazenil (a benzodiazepine receptor antagonist) and the GABA agonists THIP and muscimol (up to subtoxic doses) were without effect. 5. Flumazenil reversed the anticonvulsant action of diazepam, but not that of MK801. 6. Results obtained in this model differ somewhat from those described in a seizure model with systemic administration of NMDA. An explanation for this discrepancy is offered. 7. This model is a simple test for assessing the in vivo activity of NMDA antagonists and also expands the battery of chemically-induced seizure models for characterizing anticonvulsants not acting at NMDA receptors.
