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.
NR2B selective NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist.

Dopamine (DA) receptor blockade induces catalepsy in rats which increases in strength upon retesting. This increase in catalepsy represents a form of sensitization which has been shown to be completely context dependent. Sensitization of catalepsy therefore represents a good model

The discovery that glutamate's activity at the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is positively modulated by glycine and polyamines has led to a new pharmacological strategy that NMDA receptor-mediated events could be antagonized indirectly at the strychnine-insensitive glycine co-agonist site (glycine(B) receptor)
