Application
Arcaine sulfate salt has been used as an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor effector/antagonist:
- to evaluate its effects on the acquisition of electrical kindling of the amygdala
- to compare its effects with agmatine and MK801 on NMDA- or glutamate-induced neuronal damage
- to study its effects on cell-free translation of synthetic polynucleotide
Biochem/physiol Actions
Arcaine sulfate salt (1,4-diguanidinobutane), a polyamine, is an antagonist of the polyamine binding site of the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. Arcaine, an agmatine analog, along with ifenprodil, might have a possibility for therapeutic management in epileptic disorders.
