Abstract:
:The purpose of our study was to examine whether a significant interaction occurs between NMDA and non-NMDA receptor antagonists on respiratory function. For this purpose chloralose-anesthetized cats were used and respiratory minute volume (VE), tidal volume (Vt) respiratory rate (f), inspiratory and expiratory durations, and end tidal CO2 (FeCO2) were monitored. In some animals, phrenic nerve activity was also continuously recorded. In five spontaneously breathing animals, the NMDA receptor antagonist MK-801 was administered in a dose of 0.1 mg/kg i.v., and produced decreases in VE, Vt, f and increases in inspiratory duration and FeCO2. Using these five animals exhibiting respiratory effects from prior MK-801 dosing, we then administered the non-NMDA receptor antagonist NBQX (2,3-dihydroxy-6-nitro-7-sulfamoyl-benzo(F)quinoxaline) i.v. in a dose of 3 mg/kg. This dose is too low to produce a neuroprotective effect in animal models of brain ischemia. In each of the five animals NBQX administration produced an immediate impairment of respiration, culminating in apneusis within 55 s after i.v. injection. In terms of phrenic nerve discharge, inspiratory duration was increased approximately 4-fold by MK-801, and with the addition of NBQX, continuous discharge of the phrenic nerve occurred. Finally, NBQX given i.v. to animals not pretreated with MK-801 had only a slight depressant effect on respiratory activity. These results obtained with co-administration of low doses of two drugs that block NMDA and non-NMDA receptors raise the spector that combined use of these agents to ameliorate disorders in neurological function may be extremely deleterious to respiratory function.
