[(123)I]CNS-1261 [N-(1-naphthyl)-N'-(3-iodophenyl)-N-methylguanidine] is a high-affinity SPET ligand with selectivity for the intra-channel PCP/ketamine/MK-801 site of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. This study evaluated the effects of ketamine (a specific competitor for the intra-channel PCP/ketamine/MK-801 site) on [(123)I]CNS-1261 binding to NMDA receptors in vivo. Ten healthy volunteers underwent 2 bolus-plus-infusion [(123)I]CNS-1261 scans, one during placebo and the other during a ketamine challenge. Ketamine administration led to a significant decrease in [(123)I]CNS-1261 V(T) in most of the brain regions examined (P<.05). [(123)I]CNS-1261 appears to be a specific ligand in vivo for the intra-channel PCP/ketamine/MK-801 NMDA binding site.

Action of GABAB receptor on local network oscillation in somatosensory cortex of oral part: focusing on NMDA receptor.

The balance of activity between glutamatergic and GABAergic networks is particularly important for oscillatory neural activities in the brain. Here, we investigated the roles of GABA receptors in network oscillation in the oral somatosensory cortex (OSC), focusing on NMDA receptors. Neural oscillation at the frequency of 8-10 Hz was elicited in rat brain slices after caffeine application.

Repeated administration of a subanesthetic dose of ketamine results in impaired motor and cognitive behavior and differential expression of hippocampal P2X1 and P2X7 receptors in adult mice.

Ketamine hydrochloride serves multiple purposes, including its use as a general anesthetic, treatment for depression, and recreational drug. In studies involving rodents, ketamine is utilized as a model for schizophrenia. However, it is unclear whether age affects the behavioral response induced by repeated ketamine administration and if it modifies the expression levels of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) and purinergic receptors (P2X1, P2X4, P2X7).

The developing brain undergoes a remarkable process of synapse production and maturation, particularly in glutamatergic synapses. In this study, we focused on the locus coeruleus (LC) nucleus, a brain region crucial for cognitive functions, to investigate the developmental changes in glutamatergic synaptic connections. Using the whole-cell patch clamp method, we recorded evoked excitatory postsynaptic currents (eEPSCs) from LC neurons in rats at ages 7, 14, and 21 days.

Emotion recognition is fundamental for effective social interactions among conspecifics. Impairments in affective state processing underlie several neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, although the neurobiological substrate of these deficits remains unknown. We investigated the impact of early NMDA receptor hypofunction on socio-affective behaviors.

Background: Auditory steady-state response (ASSR) abnormalities in the 40-Hz (gamma band) frequency have been observed in schizophrenia and rodent studies of N-methyl D-aspartate glutamate receptor (NMDAR) hypofunction. However, the extent to which 40-Hz ASSR abnormalities in schizophrenia resemble deficits in 40-Hz ASSR induced by acute administration of ketamine, an NMDAR antagonist, is not yet known.

Methods: To address this knowledge gap, we conducted parallel EEG studies: a crossover, placebo-controlled ketamine drug challenge study in healthy subjects (Study 1) and a comparison of patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls subjects (Study 2).
