    REVIEW The Neuropsychopharmacology of Phencyclidine: From NMDA Receptor Hypofunction to the Dopamine Hypothesis of Schizophrenia J. David Jentsch, Ph.D., and Robert H. Roth, Ph.D. Administration of noncompetitive NMDA/glutamate effects of these drugs are discussed, especially with regard to receptor antagonists, such as phencyclidine (PCP) and differing profiles following single-dose and long-term ketamine, to humans induces a broad range of exposure. The neurochemical effects of NMDA receptor schizophrenic-like symptomatology, findings that have antagonist administration are argued to support a contributed to a hypoglutamatergic hypothesis of neurobiological hypothesis of schizophrenia, which includes schizophrenia.

Beginning in the early 1990s, means by Received in revised form 7 November 2014 which to pharmacologically intervene and counteract these pathways have been sought, though with Accepted 13 November 2014 little clinical success. Through a comprehensive review of translations from laboratory to clinic, we aim Available online 3 December 2014 to evaluate individual mechanisms of action, while highlighting potential barriers to success that will guide future research. Keywords: Methods: The MEDLINE database and The Internet Stroke Center clinical trials registry were queried Acute stroke Angiography for trials involving the use of neuroprotective agents in acute ischemic stroke in human subjects. For the purpose of the review, neuroprotective agents refer to medications used to preserve or protect the Brain ischemia Drug trials potentially ischemic tissue after an acute stroke, excluding treatments designed to re-establish perfusion.
