| Name | VU0422288 |
| Description | VU0422288 (ML396) is a potent orthosteric modulator of type III mGlu receptors (mGlus).VU0422288 shows inhibition of mGluR4, mGluR7, and mGluR8 in a calcium mobilization assay.VU0422288 can be used to study Rett syndrome (RTT). |
| In vitro | In coronal slices containing the hippocampus, VU0422288 (1 μM; 5 minutes) enhances the reduction in slope of the field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) induced by 30 μM LSP4-2022[1].However, when administered alone for 10 minutes at a concentration of 1 μM, VU0422288 does not alter the slope of fEPSP, indicating that under stimulation conditions, mGlu7 does not possess reinforcing activity in Mecp2-/y slices[1]. |
| In vivo | In Mecp2+/- mice, VU0422288 (30 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once daily for 17 days) rescues synaptic plasticity deficits and learning-memory phenotypes, reduces the frequency of respiratory pause, while showing no effect in Mecp2+/+ animals[1].
A single dose of VU0422288 (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection) in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats exhibits a plasma/brain partition coefficient of 1.67, predicting a free brain concentration of approximately 40 nM[1]. |
