The interaction of ketamine with the opiate receptor
摘要:
The analgesic effect of the anesthetic agent ketamine HCl is inhibited in rats by the narcotic receptor antagonist naloxone. Racemic (±) ketamine HCl also displaced 3H-naloxone in an opiate receptor binding-assay. The potency of ketamine in the assay was reduced nearly six-fold by sodium suggesting that the drug interacts as an agonist. However, some activity as an antagonist was not ruled out. The interaction of ketamine HCl with the opiate receptor was stereospecific with the (+) salt being more effective than the (-) salt. The stereoselective nature of the interaction is consistent with other studies (1) demonstrating that (+) ketamine HCl has a greater analgesic effect than the (-) salt.
