Modulation of kainate-activated currents by d&oxide and cyclothiazide analogues (IDRA) in cerebellar
granule neurons. Prog. Neuro-Psycbopharmacol.&

technique was used in primary cultures of cerebellar granule neurons to study the
modulation of the cyclothiazide analogue (IDRA21) and of the d&oxide derivative (IDRA 5) on
KA-evoked currents.
The dose-response of kainic acid (KA) reveals an E&o=90 PM and an Hill coefficient of 1.3.
IDRA 21 and cyclothiazide
potentiate KA-evoked current
in a dose dependent way, being
cyclothiazide more potent but less efficacious than IDRA 21. Conversely IDRA 5 acts as a negative
modulator of KA evoked -current
Application of IDRA 21 and cyclothiazide
results in a current potentiation of 125+18 % and 80 +
12 % respectively, while IDRA 5 decreases KA-current (-21+5 %). Coapplication of cyclothiazide
and IDRA 21 produces a potentiation
of 1 IO+ 17 %, suggesting a competition of the two drugs for
the same site.
In the same experimental model we studied the ability of IDRA compounds of promoting toxicity
through AMPA-receptor
activation. Under basal conditions AMPA treatment (50 PM for 1 hour)
results in a negligible excitotoxicity.
In contrast similar treatment with AMPA + IDRA 21 (1 mM) or + IDRA 5 (1 mM) or + cyclothiazide
(100 l.tM) induces citotoxicity. The neurotoxic damage induced by IDRA 21 and cyclothiazide is
blocked by GYKI 53655 (50 PM) and by NBQX (10 pM). Interestingly GYKI and NBQX are
ineffective in reducing IDRA 5 toxicity.
