General description

A noncompetitive and voltage-independent antagonist selective for NR2C/D containing NMDA receptors (IC50 = 6, 3, 229, and >300 µM for NR2C, NR2D, NR2A, and NR2B, respectively). Inhibition on NR2C/D containing NMDA receptors is glutamate-binding, but not glycine-binding, dependent. Represents a new class of noncompetitive subunit-selective NMDA receptor antagonists. With more than 100-fold selectivity for recombinant NMDA receptors over AMPA and kainate receptors.

We describe a new class of subunit-selective antagonists of N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA)-selective ionotropic glutamate receptors that contain the (E)-3-phenyl-2-styrylquinazolin-4(3H)-one backbone. The inhibition of recombinant NMDA receptor function induced by these quinazolin-4-one derivatives is noncompetitive and voltage-independent, suggesting that this family

NMDA receptors are ionotropic glutamate receptors that mediate excitatory synaptic transmission and have been implicated in several neurological diseases. We have evaluated the mechanism of action of a class of novel subunit-selective NMDA receptor antagonists, typified by (E)-4-(6-methoxy-2-(3-nitrostyryl)-4-oxoquinazolin-3(4H)-yl)-benzoic acid (QNZ46).

X-ray crystal structures for the soluble amino-terminal and ligand-binding domains of glutamate receptor ion channels, combined with a 3.6-Å-resolution structure of the full-length AMPA receptor GluA2 homotetramer, provide unique insights into the mechanisms of the assembly and function of glutamate
