NMDA receptor
Lanicemine produces sustained antidepressant efficacy with minimal psychotomimetic adverse effects. Lanicemine (3, 10 or 30 mg/kg; intraperitoneal) not only engages brain circuits involved in the generation of gamma- electroencephalography (EEG), but also influences these networks independent of the broader systems-level disruptions typical of ketamine.
Animal Model: | Male Sprague-Dawley rats |
Dosage: | 3, 10 or 30 mg/kg |
Administration: | Intraperitoneal |
Result: | Produced pronounced dose-dependent elevations in spontaneous gamma-band EEG, but only gamma changes for Ketamine were tightly coupled to increases in locomotor activity. |
