Determination of Diffusion Kinetics of Ketamine in Brain Tissue: Implications for in vitro Mechanistic Studies of Drug Actions
Ketamine has been in use for over 50 years as a general anesthetic, acting primarily through blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors in the brain. Recent studies have demonstrated that ketamine also acts as a potent and rapid-acting antidepressant when administered at sub-anesthetic doses. Howeve...
