The ED100 of the NMDA inducing clonic seizures (0.53 mcg) or tonic extension of forelimbs (5.02 mcg) increased their efficiency 2.3-fold and 4.46-fold, resp., due to the delta-sleep-inducing peptide administration in rats. The data obtained suggests a neuroprotective effect of the peptide on agonists of excitatory amino acid receptors action.
