The behavioral effects of phencyclidine (PCP) were compared with those of several compounds known to antagonize the actions of N-methyl-D-aspartate using two patterns of schedule-controlled responding in rats. Rates of variable interval responding suppressed by punishment were increased greatly by the benzodiazepine chlorodiazepoxide and showed small increases after MK-801 [(+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine] . However, no consistent increases in response rates were produced by PCP, by the stereoisomers of N-allylnormetazocine (NANM: SKF 10,047) or by the anti-ischemic drug, ifenprodil. Small doses of PCP did increase rates of unpublished variable interval responding, as did a low dose of MK-801. Timing behavior maintained by a differential reinforcement of low rate schedule was disrupted by all the compounds studied. Response rates were increased by at least one dose of PCP, MK-801, (+)-NANM and 3-(2-carboxypiperazine-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid. The effect of MK-801, however, was considerably greater than that of the other compounds. Ifenprodil and (-)-NANM did not increase rates of responding but, at high doses, produced decreases in reinforcement frequency indicating that efficient timing behavior had been disrupted. These results show that although PCP, MK-801 and (+)-NANM produce generally similar behavioral effects, there may also be some differences between the compounds, notably a more consistent effect of MK-801 on punished responding. These behavioral effects may be related to antagonism of N-methyl-D-aspartate but ifenprodil, which is also an N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist, does not show a similar behavioral profile.
