pubmed:abstractText |
Receptor binding assays have shown that diaminodecane (DA-10) reduced binding of open channel blockers to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of postsynaptic glutamate receptor through an interaction with the polyamine regulatory site. Because the action of DA-10 was opposite to that of the polyamine agonist spermine and was reversed by polyamine antagonists, DA-10 has been classified as an inverse agonist at the polyamine site. Using whole-cell voltage-clamp and single-channel recordings from cultured rat cortical neurons, we show that at negative holding potentials DA-10 (1-300 microM) reduced NMDA receptor whole cell current (IC50 = 34 microM) and produced a flickery block of NMDA single-channel currents. The flickery block of NMDA single channels was voltage-dependent and not reversed by the polyamine antagonist diethylenetriamine (DET). Potential mechanisms for the flickery block of NMDA single channel currents are discussed.
