Abstract:Effects of the novel anxiolytic drug deramciclane on excitatory amino acid release and transmembrane Ca2+ ion flux processes were compared in rat cerebrocortical homogenates containing resealed plasmalemma fragments and nerve endings. Deramciclane (10 μM) significantly inhibited 3H]D-aspartate release and transmembrane Ca2+ flux to N-methyl-D-aspartate in the absence of Mg2+. By contrast, inhibition of 3H]D-aspartate release and transmembrane Ca2+ flux evoked by 0.1 mM (S)-α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate in the presence of Mg2+ and 10 μM cyclothiazide by 10 μM deramciclane was not significant. In the presence of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists, deramciclane (10 μM) did not inhibit 3H]D-aspartate release to N-methyl-D-aspartate. These results suggest an involvement of the inhibition of a presynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor in the anxiolytic properties of deramciclane.
