Dizocilpine (MK-801) progressively suppresses of current induced by NMDA. Mg2+ (10 mM) prevents Dizocilpine from blocking the N-Me-D-Asp-induced current, even when Dizocilpine is applied for a long time in the presence of NMDA. Dizocilpine blocks NMDA-activated single-channel activity in outside-out patches.
Dizocilpine (MK-801; <500 μM) inhibits activation of microglia induced by LPS with increased Cox-2 protein expression in BV-2 cells. Dizocilpine (<500 μM) reduces microglial TNF-α output with an EC50 of 400 μM in BV-2 cells.

Dizocilpine (MK 801) (1 mg/kg) treatment before each METH injection reduces the extent of DA depletion by 55% in striatal of mice. Dizocilpine (MK 801) (1 mg/kg) also attenuates the effects of METH on microglial activation in striatal of mice.
