Description
N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are calcium permeable ligand-gated channels of the central nervous system that are activated after binding of the co-agonists glutamate and glycine. Eliprodil is a non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist that inhibits neuronal calcium channel currents. It is selective for NR2B subunit-containing receptors (IC50 = 1 μM), displaying greater than 100-fold selectivity for NR2B over NR2A and NR2C subunits. Eliprodil also avidly binds σ1 and σ2 sites (Kis = 0.013 and 0.63 μM, respectively). It is effective in vivo, blocking ischemia-induced neurodegeneration in the CA1 region of the hippocampus of gerbils subjected to bilateral carotid artery occlusion. Eliprodil can also have proarrhythmic actions in hearts under normal conditions.
