Methoxetamine (MXE) is a ketamine analog sold online that has been subject to widespread abuse for its dissociative and hallucinogenic effects. Previous studies have shown that MXE has high affinity for the phencyclidine (PCP) binding site located within the channel

Ketamine is usually administered as a racemate, which is composed of the two isomers, S(+)-and R(-)-ketamine. Recently, we have shown that racemic ketamine at clinical relevant concentrations specifically inhibits the transporter proteins for norepinephrine, dopamine and serotonin heterologously expressed in

Ketamine is an anesthetic, analgesic, and antidepressant whose secondary metabolite (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK) has N-methyl-d-aspartate-receptor-independent antidepressant activity in a rodent model. In humans, naltrexone attenuates its antidepressant effect, consistent with opioid pathway involvement. No detailed biophysical description is available of opioid

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction is critically involved in determining the extent of several central nervous systems (CNS) pathologies and here in particular neuroinflammatory conditions. Inhibiting BBB breakdown could reduce the level of vasogenic edema and the number of immune cells
