Description
Dihydrokainic acid is an inhibitor of excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2). EEAT2 exhibits anti-depressant-like activity --- an effect that is blocked by the AMPA receptor antagonist NBQX and the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT1A antagonist WAY-100635. It also increases glutamate and serotonin levels and the expression of c-Fos in the dorsal raphe nucleus. It also impairs memory acquisition, consolidation, and retrieval.
