The action of desipramine (DMI) and promazine on the response of mouse hippocampal neurons to the excitatory amino acid N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) was investigated using whole-cell and single-channel recording. DMI at 20-50 microM was a potent, selective antagonist of responses to NMDA but not kainate or quisqualate. At -60 mV, the Kd for DMI block of responses to NMDA was 10 microM. The potency of DMI as an NMDA antagonist was highly voltage-dependent and behaved as though the Kd increased e-fold per 36 mV depolarization, reflecting an increase in the dissociation rate constant. Prior block of NMDA receptors with Mg2+ prevented binding of DMI, suggesting an action in the open channel. Single-channel analysis showed a decrease in the open time and burst length distributions, consistent with binding of DMI to open channels. We suggest that the action of DMI on NMDA receptor channels is similar to that of MK-801 and does not reflect binding to other domains, such as the regulatory sites for Zn2+ and glycine.
