Effect of the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist RU486 on MK-801 induced behavioural sensitisation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Stress is known to modulate sensitisation to repeated psychostimulant exposure. However, there is no direct evidence linking glucocorticoids and sensitisation achieved by repeated administration of the NMDA receptor antagonist MK-801.

Hydrogen Gas Therapy in Schizophrenia: Potential Neuroprotective Effects From an Animal Study

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology Reports
Aims Oxidative stress has recently emerged as a key factor in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. This study investigated whether inhalation therapy with hydrogen gas, a selective antioxidant, could reduce oxidative stress and improve behavioral ...

Antidepressant Effects of (+)-MK-801 and (-)-MK-801 in the Social Defeat Stress Model [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2016
Current data on antidepressant action of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, (+)-MK-801, is inconsistent. This study was conducted to examine the effects of (+)-MK-801 and its less potent stereoisomer, (-)-MK-801, in the social defeat stress model of depression.The antidepressant effects of (+)-MK-801 (0.1mg/kg) and (-)-MK-801 (0.1mg/kg) in ...

Reversible Changes in BDNF Expression in MK-801-Induced Hippocampal Astrocytes Through NMDAR/PI3K/ERK Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
Dizocilpine (MK-801), a non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDA-R) antagonist, can induce schizophrenia-like symptoms in healthy individuals, implicating NMDA-R hypofunction in disease pathogenesis. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)

Resveratrol, a SIRT1 Activator, Ameliorates MK-801-Induced Cognitive and Motor Impairments in a Neonatal Rat Model of Schizophrenia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2020
BackgroundIn neonatal rats, MK-801 treatment generates schizophrenia-like symptoms. Resveratrol (RSV) is a phenolic compound and a potent neuroprotective agent.

Intra-accumbens injection of a dopamine aptamer abates MK-801-induced cognitive dysfunction in a model of schizophrenia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
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.

MK-801 is a potent nematocidal agent. Characterization of MK-801 binding sites in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1989
MK-801, an N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist in mammalian brain tissue, is a potent nematocidal agent. Specific MK-801 binding sites have been identified and characterized in a membrane fraction prepared from the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. The high-affinity MK-801 binding site has an apparent dissociation constant, Kd, of 225 nM. Unlike

Crocin alleviates schizophrenia-like symptoms in rats by upregulating silent information regulator-1 and brain derived neurotrophic factor

open access: yesComprehensive Psychiatry, 2020
Background: In neonatal rats, MK-801 treatments can produce schizophrenia-like symptoms. Crocin is a water soluble carotenoid in Saffron that exerts potent neuroprotective effects.

Convergent Strategy to Dizocilpine MK-801 and Derivatives [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018
A convergent total synthesis of MK-801 has been achieved. Key synthetic transformations include a multicomponent Barbier-type reaction to construct the α-branched amine, a selective Heck α-coupling tactic to generate the exocyclic alkene skeleton, and a late-stage intramolecular hydroamination reaction between the exocyclic alkene and the secondary ...

Sensorimotor Gating Impairments Induced by MK-801 Treatment may be Reduced by Tolerance Effect and by Familiarization in Monkeys

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
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.
