NMDA Receptor Antagonists Understanding

NMDA Receptor Antagonists: Overview

The NMDA receptor is an ionotropic receptor that allows for the transfer of electrical signals between neurons in the brain and in the spinal column. N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor is a ligand of glutamate, which is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the human brain. The activation of NMDA receptors has been associated with hyperalgesia, neuropathic pain, and reduced functionality of opioid receptors. Molecules that block the NMDA receptor are called NMDA-receptor antagonists. N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors are also expressed across a wide spectrum of non-neuronal cells, including central and peripheral glial cells, endothelium, bone, kidney, pancreas, and others. NMDA-receptor antagonists can be used in the management of chronic pain and Alzheimer's disease. Commercially available NMDA-receptor antagonists include ketamine, dextromethorphan, memantine, and amantadine. The opioids methadone, dextropropoxyphene, and ketobemidone are also antagonists at the NMDA receptor.

NMDA Receptor Antagonists Emerging Drugs Chapters

This segment of the NMDA Receptor Antagonists report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.

NMDA Receptor Antagonists Emerging Drugs

• NP-120 (Ifenprodil): Algernon Pharmaceuticals

NP-120 (Ifenprodil) is an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NDMA) receptor glutamate receptor antagonist specifically targeting the NMDA-type subunit 2B (Glu2NB). Ifenprodil also exhibits agonist activity for the Sigma-1 receptor, a chaperone protein up-regulated during endoplasmic reticulum stress. NP-120 (Ifenprodil – brand name Cerocal) was initially developed by Sanofi in the 1990s in the French and Japanese markets for the treatment of circulatory disorders. This repurposed drug is under clinical evaluation for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and COVID 2019 infections.

• REL 1017: Relmada Therapeutics

REL-1017 is a novel NMDA receptor (NMDAR) channel blocker that preferentially targets hyperactive channels while maintaining physiological glutamatergic neurotransmission. The drug is currently in late-stage studies as an adjunctive treatment for MDD in adults. In April 2017, the FDA granted Fast Track designation for REL-1017 for the adjunctive treatment of major depressive disorder.
