Inhibition by 2-Methoxy-4-ethylphenol of Ca2+ Influx Through Acquired and Native N-Methyl-d-aspartate–Receptor Channels

Pharmacological properties were evaluated for the antidiarrheic wood creosote ingredient 2-methoxy-4-ethylphenol (2M4EP), which was shown to be protective against neurotoxicity of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA), to modulate Ca2+ influx across acquired and native NMDA receptor (NMDAR) channels. NMDA mar...
