Phencyclidine (PCP), in a dose of 15 mg/kg, produced delayed cognitive dysfunction (at 24 h) in rats subjected to water maze tasks. At 24 h after PCP administration, ataxia, hyperlocomotion and stereotyped behavior were not induced. NE-100, N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl]-enthylamine monohydrochloride, a selective and potent sigma receptor ligand, was administered orally 10 min after PCP administration or 15 min before the first trial (24 h after PCP administration). In both cases, NE-100 dose-dependently attenuated the delayed cognitive dysfunction induced by PCP. As these findings show that ingestion of PCP led to delayed cognitive dysfunction similar to the cognitive signs of psychosis seen in humans, NE-100 is being further studied for possible treatment of subjects with schizophrenia.

1. Phencyclidine (PCP) reduces the latency of rats diving into a water-filled pool from a hidden platform, without stereotyped behavior. 2. The sigma-selective ligand, NE-100 (N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl]-ethyl-amine monohydrochloride), attenuates the effects of PCP in this procedure. 3. The serotonin2 (5-HT2) antagonist, ritanserin, and the sigma receptor ligands, 1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-4-[2'(4"-fluorophenyl)-2'-oxoethyl]- piperidine HBr (Dup734), 4-[2'-(4"-cyanophenyl)-2'-oxoethyl]-1- (cyclopropylmethyl)piperidine (XJ448), alpha-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(5-fluoro-2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazine butanol (BMY14802) and rimcazole similarly attenuate the effects of PCP. 4. The dopamine D2/sigma ligands, haloperidol and cis-N-(1-benzyl-2-methyl-pyrrolidin-3-yl)-2-methoxy-5-chloro-4- methylaminobenzamide (YM-09151-2) completely reverse the effects of PCP, whereas the same dose ranges of these drugs produce sedation. 5. The dopamine D2-selective antagonist, sulpiride, has no apparent effect on the PCP latency to the rat dive. 6. Thus, PCP-induced diving behavior was improved by sigma ligands and the 5-HT2 antagonist. This model of negative symptoms in an experimental animal will facilitate experiments on drug treatments for schizophrenia.

N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl]-ethylamine monohydrochloride (NE-100), a potent and highly selective sigma ligand, haloperidol, (+)pentazocine, 1-(cyclopropyl-methyl)-4-(2'-(4"-fluorophenyl)-2'-oxoethyl) piperidine HBr (DuP 734) and 4-(2'-(4"-cyanophenyl)-2'-oxoethyl) 1-(cyclopropylmethyl)piperidine (XJ 448) inhibited carbachol-induced inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate (IP3) formation in a dose-dependent manner. The rank order of potency of the tested drugs for inhibition was: haloperidol > or = (+)pentazocine = NE-100 > DuP 734 = XJ 448. In addition, the effects of NE-100, DuP 734 and XJ 448 upon [3H]TCP binding were examined using primary cultured neuronal cells derived from the fetal rat telencephalon. These drugs inhibited [3H]TCP binding to intact cells. The ability of the test drugs to inhibit [3H]TCP binding to primary cultured neuronal cells was in the order: NE-100 > DuP 734 > XJ 448. These observations suggest that NE-100 indirectly modulates the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)/phencyclidine (PCP) receptor ion channel complex (NMDA receptor-ion channel), presumably through sigma-1 sites.

It has been suggested that sigma receptor antagonists may be useful as antipsychotic drugs. N, N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl]-ethylamine monohydrochloride (NE-100) is a novel compound with high affinity for the sigma receptor (IC50 = 4.16 nM), but low affinity (IC50 > 10,000 nM) for D1, D2, 5-HT1A, 5-HT2 and phencyclidine (PCP) receptors. The head-weaving behavior induced by either (+)SKF10047 or PCP was dose-dependently antagonized by NE-100 with oral ED50 at 0.27 and 0.12 mg/kg, respectively. NE-100 did not affect dopamine agonists-induced stereotyped behavior and/or hyperactivity. NE-100 failed to induce catalepsy in rats. These findings indicate that NE-100 may have antipsychotic activity without the liability of motor side effects typical of neuroleptics.

Phencyclidine (PCP)-induced psychosis is a useful animal model for studies on schizophrenia. N, N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)-phenyl]- ethylamine monohydrochloride (NE-100) had no effect on conditioned avoidance responses (CAR) in rats, whereas, the PCP-induced impairment of avoidance inhibition was attenuated by NE-100. The PCP-induced ataxia or decreased attention in rhesus monkeys was to some extent overcome by NE-100. In dogs, PCP-induced either head-weaving behavior or ataxia, effects which were blocked by NE-100. Administration of PCP led to an increase in beta-2 and a decrease in delta relative power (RP) activity in cortical background spectral electroencephalographics (ECoG) in dogs. While NE-100 in itself showed no significant change in beta-2 and delta RP, NE-100 did block the PCP-induced beta-2 increase and delta decrease. These findings indicate that NE-100 attenuates the effect of PCP in experimental animals. This drug is being considered as a therapeutic for the treatment of patients in the schizophrenia.

Six per cent of rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells extended neurites (processes greater than one cell diameter in length) in the presence of 300 microM extracellular GTP or 300 microM guanosine for 48 hr, compared to only 2.5% of cells in control cultures. In the presence of 40 ng/ml of 2.5S NGF, about 20-35% of PC12 cells had neurites after 48 hr, and the addition of 300 microM guanosine or GTP together with NGF synergistically increased the proportion of cells with neurites to 40-65%. GTP and guanosine also increased the average number of branches per neurite, from 0.6 in NGF-treated cultures to 1.2 (guanosine) or 1.5 (GTP). Neurites formed after exposure to NGF alone had axonal characteristics as determined by immunocytochemistry with antibody, SMI-31, against axonal-specific polyphosphorylated neurofilament epitopes. Neurites generated with the addition of both guanosine or GTP had the same characteristics. GTP probably did not exert its effects via the P2X or P2Y purinoceptors because the adenine nucleotides ATP, ATP gamma S, ADP beta S, and ADP, which are all agonists of these receptors, inhibited rather than enhanced, NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. UTP also enhanced the proportion of cells with neurites, although not to the same degree as did GTP. This may indicate activity through a P2U-like nucleotide receptor. However, the response profile obtained, GTP > UTP >> ATP, does not fit the profile of any known P2Y, P2X or P2U receptor. The poorly hydrolyzable GTP analogues, GTP gamma S and GDP beta s were also unable to enhance the proportion of cells with neurites. This implied that GTP may produce its effects through a GTP-specific ectoenzyme or kinase. This idea was supported by results showing that another poorly hydrolyzable analogue, GMP-PCP, competitively inhibited the effects of GTP on neurite outgrowth. GTP did not exert its effects after hydrolysis to guanosine since the metabolic intermediates GDP and GMP were also ineffective in enhancing the proportion of cells with neurites. Moreover, the effects of GTP and guanosine were mutually additive, implying that these two purines utilized different signal transduction mechanisms. The effects of guanosine were not affected by the nucleoside uptake inhibitors nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBTI) and dipyridamole, indicating that a transport mechanism was not involved. Guanosine also did not activate the purinergic P1 receptors, because the A2 receptor antagonists, 1,3-dipropyl-7-methylxanthine (DPMX) or CGS15943, and the A1 receptor antagonist, 1,3-dipropyl-8-(2-amino-4-chloro)xanthine (PACPX) did not inhibit its reaction. Therefore guanosine enhanced neurite outgrowth by a signal transduction mechanism that does not include the activation of the P1 purinoceptors. The enhancement of the neuritogenic effects of NGF by GTP and guanosine may have physiological implications in sprouting and functional recovery after neuronal injury in the CNS, due to the high levels of nucleosides and nucleotides released from dead or injured cells.

To investigate the in vivo functional interaction between phencyclidine (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl)piperidine; PCP) binding sites and sigma receptors, we examined the effects of sigma receptor ligands on stereotyped head-weaving behavior induced by PCP, a putative PCP/sigma receptor ligand, and (+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydroxy-5H-dibenzo(a,d)cyclo-hepten-5,10-imin e ((+)-MK-801; dizocilpine), a selective PCP binding site ligand, in rats. PCP (7.5 mg/kg, i.p.)-induced head-weaving behavior was inhibited by both N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)-phenyl]-ethylamine (NE-100; 0.03-1.0 mg/kg, p.o.), a selective sigma1 receptor ligand, and alpha-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(5-fluoro-2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperidine butanol (BMY-14802; 3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.), a prototype sigma receptor ligand, in a dose-dependent manner, whereas NE-100 (0.1-1.0 mg/kg, p.o.) and BMY-14802 (3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) did not inhibit dizocilpine (0.25 mg/kg, s.c.)-induced head-weaving behavior. These results suggest that NE-100 and BMY-14802 act via sigma receptors. Dizocilpine-induced head-weaving behavior was potentiated by 1,3-di-o-tolyl-guanidine (DTG; 0.03-0.3 microg/kg, i.v.) and (+)-3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine ((+)-3-PPP; 3 and 6 mg/kg, i.p.), sigma1/sigma2 receptor ligands, as well as by (+)-N-allyl-normetazocine ((+)-SKF-10,047: 8 mg/kg, i.p.), a sigma1 receptor ligand, while DTG (0.3 microg/kg, i.v.), (+)-3-PPP (6 mg/kg, i.p.) and (+)-SKF-10,047 (8 mg/kg, i.p.) did not induce this behavior. Potentiation of dizocilpine-induced head-weaving behavior by DTG (0.3 microg/kg, i.v.), (+)-3-PPP (6 mg/kg, i.p.) and (+)-SKF-10,047 (8 mg/kg, i.p.) was completely blocked by NE-100 (0.1 mg/kg, p.o.) and BMY-14802 (10 mg/kg, p.o.). These results suggest that PCP binding sites and sigma receptors are involved in PCP-induced head weaving behavior, and that sigma1 receptors play an important role in modulation of the head-weaving behavior.

The mechanisms of sigma (sigma) receptor ligands-induced neuroprotective effects are controversial because both sigma receptors and phencyclidine (PCP) binding sites of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor channel complex have been reported to contribute to these neuroprotective effects. Thus, to clarify the role of sigma receptor in the neuroprotective effects, we examined the effects of 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (SA4503), a novel sigma1 receptor agonist with negligible affinity for the NMDA/PCP receptor channel complex, on the hypoxia/hypoglycemia- and exogenously applied NMDA-induced neurotoxicity in the rat primary neuronal cultures. A selective sigma1 receptor agonist, SA4503, significantly suppressed the hypoxia/hypoglycemia-induced neurotoxicity in the cultures, whereas this agonist failed to inhibit the NMDA-induced neurotoxicity. Similarly, (+)-pentazocine ((+)-PTZ), a prototype sigma1 receptor agonist, inhibited the hypoxia/hypoglycemia-induced neurotoxicity, whilst it did not affect the NMDA-induced toxicity in the cultures. These neuroprotective effects of SA4503 and (+)-PTZ were partially blocked by N,N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl]ethylamine monohydrochloride (NE-100), a putative sigma1 receptor antagonist. These results suggest that the sigma1 receptor subtype plays an important role in the sigma receptor ligands-induced neuroprotective effects via the regulation of excitatory amino acids (EAAs) release from the presynaptic sites.

The effect of phencyclidine (PCP) on latent learning was investigated using a one-trial water-finding task in mice. Mice without water deprivation were given PCP or saline before a training trial, which consisted of exposure to a novel open-field environment with an alcove containing a water tube. Twenty to twenty-four hours after water deprivation, animals were placed in the same apparatus and the time required to find the water tube measured (test trial). Saline-treated trained mice showed a significantly shorter time to find the water tube during the test trial (finding latency) than naive mice that had not been trained. When PCP (1mg/kg i.p.) was administered before the training trial, the finding latency was significantly prolonged in comparison with that in the saline-treated mice, indicating that PCP induced impairment of latent learning. 1-(3,4-Dimethoxy-phenethyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (SA4503: 0.3 mg/kg s.c.) and (+)-pentazocine (1 mg/kg s.c.), selective sigma(1) receptor agonists, or D-cycloserine (10 and 30mg/kg, s.c.), a glycine binding site agonist, significantly counteracted the PCP-induced impairment of latent learning, whereas (+)-SKF-10,047 (0.1-3 mg/kg s.c.), a putative sigma(1) receptor agonist, did not. The ameliorating effects of SA4503 and (+)-pentazocine were antagonized by N,N-dipropyl-2-(4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy) phenyl) ethylamine (NE-100: 1 mg/kg i.p.), a selective sigma(1) receptor antagonist. SA4503 also ameliorated the impairment of latent learning induced by dizocilpine, a non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, the effect being antagonized by NE-100. These results suggest that PCP induces an impairment of latent learning, this effect being mediated via glutamatergic systems, and that activation of sigma(1) receptors ameliorates impairment of latent learning induced by PCP.

Phencyclidine (PCP)-induced head-weaving is inhibited by a novel selective sigma1-ligand, (R)-(+)-1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-[4-(2-methoxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]methyl-2-pyrrolidinone L-tartrate (MS-377), but not by dopamine D2 antagonists. In the present study, we examined the effects of two potent and selective sigma1-ligands, MS-377 and N,N-dipropyl-2-(4-methoxy-3-(2-phenylethoxy)phenyl) ethylamine (NE-100), on PCP-induced rearing behaviour, hyperlocomotion and ataxia in comparison with the currently available antipsychotic agents with affinity for D2 receptors, haloperidol, sultopride and risperidone. Male Wistar rats or ddY mice were administered MS-377, NE-100, haloperidol, sultopride or risperidone, and PCP was administered 60 min later (in the case of NE-100 10 min later). Rearing behaviour, hyperlocomotion and ataxia were examined 10 min after PCP administration. MS-377, haloperidol, sultopride and risperidone dose-dependently inhibited PCP-induced rearing and hyperlocomotion, but did not antagonize PCP-induced ataxia. In contrast, the other selective sigma1-ligand, NE-100, did not affect any of the PCP-induced behaviour patterns in this study. These results suggest that there are at least two types of ligands for sigma1-receptors and that some sigma1-ligands, including MS-377, have more comprehensive effects against PCP-induced abnormal behaviour than other sigma1-ligands or D2 antagonists.
