Intrathecal (i.t.) administration of the opioid dynorphin causes neurological dysfunction and tissue damage. It has been suggested that these effects of dynorphin may be mediated, in part, by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. In the present studies, recently developed compounds that block

1. The effects of the specific N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-glycine site antagonist 5-fluoro indole-2-carboxylic acid (FICA) and NMDA, microinjected into the vasodepressor caudal ventrolateral medulla, were compared in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and in Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. 2. 5-Fluoro indole-2-carboxylic acid elicited

Whole-cell and single-channel patch-clamp recordings from hippocampal neurons in culture have been used to study the receptor channel selectivity of the glutamate analog quisqualate. The dose-response relationship of quisqualate acting at the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor was measured as that portion
