The effect on excitatory amino acid (EAA)-induced toxicity of two novel non-N-methyl-D-aspartate (non-NMDA) antagonists 2-amino-3-[3-(carboxymethoxy)-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl]propionic acid (AMOA) and 2-amino-3-[2-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazol-4-yl)methyl-5-methyl-3- oxoisoxazolin-4-yl]propionic acid (AMNH) was tested in primary cultures of cerebral cortex neurons. Such cultures provide a useful model for the investigation of the toxicity of EAAs and a convenient screening system for potential neuroprotective activity of pharmacological agents. It was demonstrated that AMNH and AMOA abolished neurotoxicity induced by kainic acid with IC50 values of 62 +/- 10 and 120 +/- 19 microM, respectively. No effect on neuronal damage induced by NMDA or AMPA could be detected.
