PMPA is a selective inhibitor of NAALADase with Ki value of 275 pM [1].
NAALADase also known as GCPII is a zinc metalloenzyme that resides in membranes and involves in the catalyzing process of neuropeptide NAAG to NAA and glutamate. It has been shown that NAALADase has the highest expression in nervous/ prostatic tissues and cancers and NAALADase inhibition produces a variety of effects on providing neuroprotection, detection, imaging and treatment of prostate cancer [2] [3].
PMPA is a potent NAALADase inhibitor and has a more activity than reported NAALADase inhibitor ZJ43. In male C57/Bl mice model, high doses of PMPA inhibited the morphine tolerance development (resembling the effect of 7.5 mg/kg of the NMDA receptor antagonist, memantine) while had no effect on severity of withdrawal; 100 mg/kg PMPA also significantly potentiated morphine withdrawal, but inhibited both acquisition and expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference which suggested NAALADase involves in phenomena related to opioid addiction [4]. PMPA treatment increased the mice latency to enter the dark box during the training day and at the dose of 150 mg/kg PMPA treatment impaired spontaneous alternation and reduced locomotion in Y-maze task which demonstrated that PMPA affected mice learning and memory tasks through NAALADase inhibition [5].

Cell experiment: |
Neuronal cultures and neuron–glia mixed cultures are treated with ketamine diluted in the culture medium (1, 3, 10, 30, 100, 300, 1000, 2000, 3000 μM) for 24 h to compare neurotoxicity in these two different cell cultures. 2-PMPA is selected to explore the protective effect on ketamine-induced neurotoxicity in these two different cell cultures. Cells are exposed to 2-PMPA (20, 50, 100 μM) half an hour before 10 μM ketamine treatment in neuronal cultures and 2 mM ketamine treatment in neuron–glia mixed cultures for 24 h. Different doses of ketamine chosen in neuronal cultures and neuron–glia mixed cultures are based on the results of cell viability tests[2]. |
Animal experiment: |
Rats: 2-PMPA is dissovled in methanol and diluted in acetonitrile/water (1:1, v/v). The concentration of stock solution is 1 mg/mL. Male Wistar rats are used in the study. 2-PMPA is administered to male Wistar rats as a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) dose. At 0.08, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h post dose, blood samples are collected in heparinized microtubes by cardiac puncture immediately before sacrifice. Tissues (brains, sciatic nerves and DRG’s) are dissected after exsanguination and immediately flash frozen (-80°C). Plasma is prepared by centrifugation immediately after collection of blood samples. 2-PMPA is assayed in plasma and tissues by the developed LC/MS/MS method[1]. Mice: Male Swiss-Webster (SW) mice are used in the study. The effect of 2-PMPA is tested on an arbitrarily selected experimental group of 12 mice (group B) by injectingthe drug intraperitoneally (i.p.) at 80 mg/kg. The control group (group A) is injected i.p. with the water vehicle. Rotarod tests are then performed at additional times of 70, 240, 420, and 1440 min postinjection, and performance is measured as latency to fall, in seconds, at the tested rpm. A total of 480 2-min Rotarod tests are performed in this experiment[3]. |
