N-methyl-D-aspartate Receptors Are Involved in Caffeine-Induced Facilitation on Memory Retention of Passive Avoidance Learning in Rats

Abstract: Background: Caffeine is an antagonist of adenosine receptors. It preserves cognition and reduces neurodegeneration. The MK-801, a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, has also shown amnesic properties in animal models. The effect of caffeine on MK-801-induced amnesia has not been the subject of any recent study. Methods: In this study, the effects of different doses (10 and 30 mg/kg) of caffeine on Wistar male rats (eight in each group), passive-avoidance (PA) response, and the impai… Show more

“…Caffeine has neuroprotector and cytoprotector effects in cases of dopamine-induced damage by regulating the levels of this neurotransmitter [29]. Caffeine has also been associated with an effect that retards signs of neuronal degeneration in diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, effects that occur through interaction with adenosine receptors and a possible association with N-methyl D-aspartate receptors (NMDA), which increase cognition and delay the onset of the associated signs [35][36][37].…”

“…The mechanism that induces memory enhancement may be mediated by the interaction between the NMDA receptors and treatment with caffeine at low doses, which have been shown to induce memory improvement in male Wistar rats (Diler et al 2013). Recently, Kim et al (2018) refuted the hypothesis of interaction with the GRIN2A receptor -which functions as a subunit of NMDA-because they failed to detect any significant interaction (P = 0.47).…”
