Background:

ADX-47273 is a potent and selective mGluR5 receptor PAM (positive allosteric modulator), EC50 = 0.17 μm, with no effect on other mGluR subtypes. [1]

The mGluR (metabotropic glutamate receptor) is a group of G-protein coupled receptors and is active through an indirect metabotropic process. It plays a critical role in regulating synaptic plasticity and neural network activity.

In HEK-293 cell expressing rat mGlu5, ADX-showed 9-fold higher response (EC50 = 0.17 μm) to threshold concentration of glutamate (50 nM) in the fluorometric Ca2+ assays, it also shifted mGlu5 receptor glutamate response curve to the left. [1]

In vivo, ADX47273 increased ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) and CREB (cAMP-responsive element-binding protein) phosphorylation in rat hippocampus and prefrontal cortex. In rat and mouse models that sensitive to antipsychotic treatment, ADX47273 decreased rat conditioned avoidance responding (minimal effective dose = 30 mg/kg i.p.) and reduced mouse ampomorphine-activated climbing (minimal effective dose = 100 mg/kg i.p.) [1]
