The substituted benzimidazole, NS-649, has been shown to be a blocker of neuronal calcium channels in patch-clamp studies. NS-649 dose-dependently inhibited release of D-aspartate from cerebellar granule neurons. The neuroprotective effect of this compound in vitro and in vivo models of ischemia was demonstrated.
