The non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist, ifenprodil, discriminates two receptor populations, each of which shows a reciprocal abundance in cultured cortical and cerebellar granule cells. Thus approximately 70% of NMDA-gated membrane current was antagonized with high affinity (IC50 = 1.4 +/- 0.9 microM) in cortical neurones whereas only approximately 20% was antagonized with high affinity (IC50 = 1.3 +/- 0.3 microM) in granule cells. Inhibition curves for CGS 19755 appeared relatively monophasic: this competitive NMDA antagonist had a significantly higher affinity for the granule cell receptor (Ki = 0.8 +/- 0.2 microM) compared with that on cortical neurones (Ki = 2 +/- 0.6 microM). The data suggest that these two antagonists may be of value in identifying the expression of subpopulations of native NMDA receptors in other brain regions.
