Abstract

The ketamine metabolite (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine ([2R,6R]-HNK) has analgesic efficacy in murine models of acute, neuropathic, and chronic pain. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the α-amino-3-hydroxyl-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionate (AMPA) dependence of (2R,6R)-HNK analgesia and protein changes in the hippocampus in murine pain models administered (2R,6R)-HNK or saline.
