Application
Amantadine hydrochloride has been used:
- to determine its effectiveness in reducing surgery-induced cognitive impairment
- to preincubate multipotent stem cells (MSCs), to investigate the cellular internalization pathway
- to determine whether amantadine-attenuated sepsis-induces neuroinflammation and dysfunction of learning and memory
- to preincubate primary cultured rat dental pulp stem cells (rDPSCs)
- to determine the pathway of internalization
Biochem/physiol Actions
Amantadine hydrochloride is effective against influenza viruses both in vivo and in vitro. It is considered as an antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) type glutamate receptor. Amantadine plays an important role in the release of dopamine, preventing dopamine reuptake and blocking microglial activation and neuroinflammation.
Dopamine releaser used to treat Parkinsonism and drug-induced extrapyramidal reactions.
