摘    要:Aim: To examine whether (-)-stepholidine (SPD) has a direct effect on the N- methyl-D-aspartic acid receptors (NMDAR) containing the NMDA receptor subunits NR2A or NR2B and to compare its effect with those of haloperidol (Hal) and clozapine (Cloz). Methods: NMDAR was transiently expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. Changes in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca^2+]i) induced by NMDAR activation were monitored with Fura-2 ratio imaging techniques. Results: SPD had no significant effects on either subunit of NMDAR at a concentration of less than 100 μmol/L. Hal selectively inhibited NMDAR containing the NR2B subunit, whereas Cloz inhibited both subunits of NMDAR. Although both Hal and Cloz inhibited NRI a/NR2B receptor-mediated Ca^2+ influx, their effects were different. Hal was more potent and had a faster peak effect than Cloz. Conclusion: Both Hal and Cloz inhibit NMDAR-mediated function, whereas SPD produced only a little inhibition at a high concentration. Based on our other studies, the modulation of SPD on NMDAR function may be via D1 receptor action underlying an indirect mechanism.
