The purpose of the present study was to determine whether central administration of (1S,3R)-1-aminocyclopentane-1,3-dicarboxylic acid (ACPD), a selective metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist, would stimulate glucose metabolism, activate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, or influence pancreatic endocrine secretion.

We examined the effects of the 5-hydroxytryptamine2 receptor agonist, (+-)1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane, on spontaneous and evoked discharge of locus coeruleus neurons in the rat. Extracellular recordings were obtained from single locus coeruleus neurons while (+-)1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane was injected systemically ...

Abstract:A behavioural study of the domoic acid (DOM)‐induced convulsive behaviour after intracerebroventricular administration was carried out in rats and mice. DOM‐induced behaviours were compared to those elicited by other excitatory amino acid (EAA) agonists N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA), α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA ...

Adenosine has been reported to have beneficial effects against ischemic brain damage, although the mechanisms are not fully clarified. To examine the role of adenosine on the ischemia-evoked release of neurotransmitters, we applied a highly selective agonist for adenosine A1 receptor, 2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA), into the ischemic brain ...

The enantiomers of alpha-amino-4-bromo-3-hydroxy-5-isoxazolepropionic acid (4-bromohomoibotenic acid, Br-HIBO, 1) a selective and potent agonist at one class of the central (S)-glutamic acid receptors, were prepared with an enantiomeric excess higher than 98.8% via stereoselective enzymic hydrolysis of (RS)-alpha-(acetylamino)-4-bromo-3-methoxy-5 ...

Excitatory amino acid agonists and antagonists: pharmacology and therapeutic applications
Pharmaceutica Acta Helvetiae, 2000Glutamic acid is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). Specific receptors bind glutamate and some of these when activated open an integral ion channel and are thus known as ionotropic receptors. Within the ionotropic family of glutamate receptors, three major subtypes have been identified using classical ...

Depolarization of retinal horizontal cells by excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter agonists
Neuroscience Letters, 1982We have recorded the intracellular membrane potential of horizontal cells, second-order interneurones of the vertebrate retina, from fish retinae perfused with Ringer solution containing agonist drugs of the excitatory neurotransmitters, L-glutamate and L-aspartate.

Excitatory amino acid receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes: agonist pharmacology.
Molecular Pharmacology, 1988The properties of excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptors transplanted into Xenopus oocytes were investigated by voltage clamp 48 hr to 5 days after oocytes had been injected with mRNA isolated from rat brain. The application of EAA agonists to mRNA-injected cells, but not to uninjected or water-injected cells, produced several different inward currents,

Neurotoxicity of excitatory amino acid receptor agonists in young rat hippocampal slices
Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 1989Hippocampal slices from young (8-day-old) rats were evaluated as a model for investigating the mechanisms underlying the neurotoxic action of excitatory amino acid receptor agonists. The slices were exposed to the agonists for up to 30 min and were then postincubated for 90 min in order to allow irreversibly damaged cells to become visibly necrotic ...
