Biochem/physiol Actions

NR2B selective NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist which appears to target the "polyamine site" on the NMDA receptor, setting it apart from other NR2B receptor antagonists. Possesses neuroprotective effects in models of ischemia, but prolongs the QT interval in patients; currently under investigation for acute and chronic pain.

NMDA receptor antagonists have been reported to affect learned behaviors conditioned with abused drugs, with the outcome dependent, in part, on the class of NMDA receptor antagonist used. The present study tested the ability of various site-selective NMDA receptor antagonists

Prenatal exposure to alcohol can disrupt brain development, leading to a variety of behavioral alterations, including learning deficits. We have postulated that some central nervous system damage may be due to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-mediated excitotoxicity that occurs during ethanol withdrawal.

The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of glutamate receptor is one pathway through which excessive influx of calcium has been suggested to trigger ischemia-induced delayed neuronal death. NMDA receptors are heterooligomeric complexes comprised of both NR1 and NR2A-D subunits, in various combinations.

Current symptomatic treatment for Parkinson's disease is based largely on dopamine-replacing agents. The fact that long-term treatment with these drugs is characterized by many side effects has lead to widespread interest in nondopaminergic therapies. To date, however, it has proved

Between 1993 and 1996, a total of 452 patients were entered into a randomized trial evaluating eliprodil (a non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist) in patients suffering from severe head injury. The primary efficacy analysis concerned the Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS), six
