General description

CP-101,606 (Traxoprodil) is a substituted 4-phenylpiperidine and is localized in the fore brain neurons.

Application

CP-101,606 has been used as a N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist to study its role in recovery of spinal cord injuries.

Biochem/physiol Actions

CP-101,606 (Traxoprodil) plays a role in inhibiting glutamate-induced death in rats. It may exhibit therapeutic effects against human ischemia and neurodegenerative disorders. Traxoprodil is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6.
Traxoprodil (CP-101,606) is a potent noncompetitive antagonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, selective for the NR2B subunit. It has been shown to be neuroprotective in animal models of brain injury and stroke.

The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist ketamine is known to have not only a rapid antidepressant effect but also dissociative side effects. Traxoprodil and lanicemine, also NMDA antagonists, are candidate antidepressant drugs with fewer side effects. In order to understand their

Many human spinal cord injuries are anatomically incomplete but exhibit complete paralysis. It is unknown why spared axons fail to mediate functional recovery in these cases. To investigate this, we undertook a small-molecule screen in mice with staggered bilateral hemisections
