Application

AMN082 is a selective allosteric mGluR 7 receptor agonist and has been used to study the role of this glutamate receptor type in the medial prefrontal cortex in mice. AMN082 inhibits forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation, and stimulates not only GTPγS binding but also the release of stress hormones.

Biochem/physiol Actions

AMN082 is a selective allosteric mGluR 7 receptor agonist and first selective pharmacological tool for mGluR7. AMN082 inhibits forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation (EC50 = 64 nM) and stimulates GTPγS binding (EC50 = 290 nM) similar to L-AP4 and greater than L-glutamate. Thus, AMN082 is a "full agonist" and acts at an allosteric site in the transmembrane domain of mGluR7. AMN082 has no effects at other mGluR′s up to 10 μM and stimulates release of stress hormones (corticosterone and ACTH) and is orally active and brain penetrable.

Currently prescribed antidepressants affect the reuptake and/or metabolism of biogenic amines. Unfortunately for patients, these treatments require several weeks to produce significant symptom remission. However, recently it has been found that ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic agent that noncompetitively antagonizes NMDA
