Quantitative studies of N-methyl-D-aspartate, 2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate and cis-2,3-piperidine dicarboxylate interactions on the neonatal rat spinal cord in vitro. 1986

P L Wheatley, and K J Collins

The interactions between N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), (+/-)2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (2AP5) and (+/-)cis-2.3-piperidine dicarboxylate (cis-PDA) were examined quantitatively in the neonatal rat spinal cord in vitro. NMDA and cis-PDA evoked concentration-dependent motoneuronal depolarizations. The maximal cis-PDA-evoked response was approximately 60% of that evoked by NMDA. When applied in combination with fixed concentrations of cis-PDA, NMDA evoked concentration-dependent depolarizations superimposed upon the basal cis-PDA-evoked depolarizations, the dose-response curve for which intercepted the control dose-response curve and was subsequently moved to the right compared with the control curve. 2AP5 shifted the NMDA dose-response curves to the right and Schild regression analysis gave a pKB of 5.0 with a slope of 1.00. 2AP5 also moved the cis-PDA dose-response-curve (apparent KB 3.1 X 10(-5) M) to the right and abolished the cis-PDA component of the NMDA + cis-DPA dose-response curve. These results are consistent with the predictions of drug-receptor theory for the interactions of a full agonist (NMDA), competitive antagonist (2AP5) and partial agonist (cis-PDA) and represent further evidence for a population of excitatory amino acid receptors for which NMDA is a selective agonist.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008564 Membrane Potentials The voltage differences across a membrane. For cellular membranes they are computed by subtracting the voltage measured outside the membrane from the voltage measured inside the membrane. They result from differences of inside versus outside concentration of potassium, sodium, chloride, and other ions across cells' or ORGANELLES membranes. For excitable cells, the resting membrane potentials range between -30 and -100 millivolts. Physical, chemical, or electrical stimuli can make a membrane potential more negative (hyperpolarization), or less negative (depolarization).
