Abstract

These studies show that systemic administration of the prodrug 4-Cl-KYN produces high central nervous system levels of 7-Cl-KYNA, a potent and highly selective antagonist of the NMDA receptor. Compared with other drugs tested, 4-Cl-KYN has robust antinociceptive effects with a better side effect profile, highlighting its potential for treating hyperpathic pain states.
