A role for receptors of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid in the discriminative stimulus properties of phencyclidine.

Ketamine and (+)-N-allylnormetazocine ((+)-NANM) were found to generalize in a rat operant drug discrimination paradigm to the interoceptive stimulus induced by phencyclidine (PCP). Intraperitoneal administration of the non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, MK-801,...

description Ketamine and (+)-N-allylnormetazocine ((+)-NANM) were found to generalize in a rat operant drug discrimination paradigm to the interoceptive stimulus induced by phencyclidine (PCP). Intraperitoneal administration of the non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, MK-801, and intracerebroventricular injection of the competitive antagonist, 2-DL-amino-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid (2-APH), also resulted in a dose-dependent generalisation to the PCP discriminative stimulus. The results suggest that NMDA receptor antagonism may play an important role in the mediation of the discriminative stimulus properties of PCP. The low potency of MK-801 and 2-APH to displace [3H](+)-NANM binding in vitro argues against an involvement of the haloperidol-sensitive sigma recognition site in the behaviour.
