Application
D(-)-2-Amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid has been used to pretreat BNST (bed nucleus of the stria terminalis) in order to block the induction of anxiety by ORX-A (orexin-A) into the BNST.
Biochem/physiol Actions
NMDA antagonists have muscle relaxation property and are known to offer neuron protection against brain damage induced by ischemia. 2-Amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid has been proved to block the iontophoresis induced depolarization of NMDA.
Anticonvulsant; potent and selective N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist; active enantiomer of 2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid.

Excitation in neural circuits must be carefully controlled by inhibition to regulate information processing and network excitability. During development, cortical inhibitory and excitatory inputs are initially mismatched but become co-tuned or balanced with experience. However, little is known about how
