Description: | Traxoprodil (CP101,606) is a potent and selective NMDA antagonist and protect hippocampal neurons with an IC50 of 10 nM. |
Target: | IC50: 10 nM (Neuroprotection)[1] |
In Vivo: | Traxoprodil is potent at blocking haloperidol-induced catalepsy and with an ED50 less than 1 mg/kg. Traxoprodil is effective at 1 mg/kg to block NMDA (ip) stimulated cfos induction in mice[1]. Traxoprodil at a dose of 20 and 40 mg/kg exhibits antidepressant activity in the Forced swim test and it is not related to changes in animals’ locomotor activity[2]. Traxoprodil (20 nM i.c.v.) increases the latency to generalized tonic-clonic seizures induced by PTZ (70 mg/kg; i.p.). Traxoprodil (60 mg/kg, p.o.) increases the latency to clonic and generalized seizures, and decreases the total time spent in seizures[3]. |
Animal Administration: | Rats[3] The effect of traxoprodil and SPD on PTZ-induced seizures is investigated by injecting the Adult (90-100 days-old) male Wistar rats (250-300 g) with traxoprodil (0.2, 2 or 20 nM/site), SPD (0.02, 0.2 or 2 nM/site), or with vehicle (0.9% NaCl, 1 μL) 15 min before the administration of PTZ (35 or 70 mg/kg, i.p.)[3]. Mice[2] The Forced swim test is done on male Albino Swiss mice (25-30 g). Traxoprodil (5, 10, 20, 40 mg/kg), imipramine and saline are administered i.p. 60 min before the test. The antidepressant activity is measured[2]. |
