Sensorimotor Gating Impairments Induced by MK-801 Treatment may be Reduced by Tolerance Effect and by Familiarization in Monkeys [PDF]
Dizocilpine (MK-801) is a noncompetitive NMDA antagonist that induces schizophrenic-like effects. It is therefore widely used in experimental models of schizophrenia including prepulse inhibition (PPI) impairments in rodents.

Behavioral features and disorganization of oscillatory activity in C57BL/6J mice after acute low dose MK-801 administration [PDF]
Low dose acute administration of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonist MK-801 is widely used to model cognition impairments associated with schizophrenia (CIAS) in rodents. However, due to no unified standards for animal strain, dose, route of

Intra-accumbens injection of a dopamine aptamer abates MK-801-induced cognitive dysfunction in a model of schizophrenia. [PDF]
Systemic administration of the noncompetitive NMDA-receptor antagonist, MK-801, has been proposed to model cognitive deficits similar to those seen in patients with schizophrenia.

The Effects of Poria cocos on Rho Signaling-Induced Regulation of Mobility and F-Actin Aggregation in MK-801-Treated B35 and C6 Cells [PDF]
Background and Aim. We recently investigated whether Poria cocos water extract modulates ketamine-induced Rho signaling regulation and reverses ketamine-inhibited cell mobility and F-actin reconstruction in B35 and C6 cells.

Frequency-specific medial septal nucleus deep brain stimulation improves spatial memory in MK-801-treated male rats [PDF]
Background: Few treatments exist for the cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. Pharmacological agents resulting in glutamate N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor hypofunction, such as MK-801, mimic many of these symptoms and disrupt neural activity ...

Functional ultrasound imaging and prewhitening analysis reveal MK-801-induced disruption of brain network connectivity [PDF]
BackgroundDisruption of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activity within the septohippocampal network - a critical circuit that includes the hippocampus, medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and other nuclei - is believed to contribute to learning and ...

Poria cocos Ethanol Extract Restores MK-801-Induced Cytoskeleton Regulation in Neuro2A and IMR-32 Cells and Locomotor Hyperactivity in C57BL/6 Mice by Modulating the Rho Signaling Pathway [PDF]
Poria cocos extract attenuates MK-801-induced hyperactivity via RhoA/ROCK1 pathway modulation in mice. Background/Objectives: Poria cocos (P. cocos), a traditional East Asian medicinal mushroom, serves as a medicine and nutritional supplement, has been ...

MK-801-exposure induces increased translation efficiency and mRNA hyperacetylation of Grin2a in the mouse prefrontal cortex [PDF]
Acute exposure to MK-801, the non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, induces schizophrenia-like behavioural changes in juvenile male mice. However, the effects of acute MK-801 exposure on brain gene expression at the translation

The effects and mechanism of environmental enrichment on MK-801 induced cognitive impairment in rodents with schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder characterized by positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms. Cognitive symptoms are a kind of symptoms with high incidence and great impact on patients. There is no effective treatment in clinical practice.
