Abstract
Nootropic non-anticholinesterase organophosphorus preparation CAPAH and substance P produced similar and dose-dependent effects on the amplitude and temporal parameters of miniature endplate potentials in mammalian neuromuscular synapse. Neurokinin receptor antagonist Win-51.708 abolished the effects of these agents. In behavioral experiments substance P moderated the mnemotropic and antidepressant effects of CAPAH. It was assumed that neurokinin receptors are the targets of CAPAH and substance P in CNS and neuromuscular synapse.
