Gene Information

Application

SIB 1757 may be used in mGluR5 metabotropic glutamate receptor-mediated cell signaling studies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SIB 1757 is a highly selective mGluR5 metabotropic glutamate receptor antagonist. It non-competitively inhibits glutamate-induced increase in Ca2+ at human metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (hmGluR1).1 Inhibition of mGlu5 receptor renders protection to neurons2 against methamphetamine-induced oxidative damage.3

We have used potent and selective non-competitive antagonists of metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) -- 2-methyl-6-phenylethynylpyridine (MPEP), [6-methyl-2-(phenylazo)-3-pyridinol] (SIB-1757) and [(E)-2-methyl-6-(2-phenylethenyl)pyridine] (SIB-1893) - to examine whether endogenous activation of this particular metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype contributes to neuronal degeneration.

Cell lines expressing the human metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5a (hmGluR5a) and hmGluR1b were used as targets in an automated high-throughput screening (HTS) system that measures changes in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) using fluorescence detection. This functional screen was used to

Methamphetamine (MA), a widely used drug of abuse, produces oxidative damage of nigrostriatal dopaminergic terminals. We examined the effect of subtype-selective ligands of metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors on MA neurotoxicity in mice. MA (5 mg/kg, i.p.; injected three times, every
