Ro 25-6981 maleate is a potent NMDA receptor antagonist.
ChEBI: Ro 25-6981 maleate is the maleic acid salt of Ro 25-6981. It is a potent and selective antagonist of GluN2B-containing NMDA receptors. It has a role as an anticonvulsant, an antidepressant, a neuroprotective agent and a NMDA receptor antagonist. It contains a Ro 25-6981(1+).
Ro 25-6981 maleate salt is a potent and selective antagonist of NMDA glutamate receptors containing the NR2B subunit with IC50 values of .009 μM for NR2B vs. 52 μM for NR2A subunits. Ro 25-6981 has been shown to have neuroprotectant effects and to reduce inflammatory and neuropathic pain in rodent models.
