Popis: NR2B-subtype-selective antagonists differ from MK-801, a nonselective NMDA receptor antagonist. MK-801 antagonizes electrical seizures at doses as low as 0.1 to 0.18 mg/kg and elicits popping at doses as low as 0.5 mg/kg, whereas ifenprodil and Ro 8-4304 were unable to do so at the doses tested. Ro 25-6981, however, was able to antagonize electrically-precipitated tonic hindlimb extension at 100 mg/kg, but was not able to elicit popping behavior at this dose.
