Notes: ADX-47273 is a positive allosteric modulator of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) with EC50 values of 0.17 and 0.23 μM for potentiation of glutamate activity in HEK293 cells expressing rat mGluR5 and primary astrocyte cultures, respectively.{37446} It is selective for mGluR5 over rat mGluR1 and human mGluR1 and mGluR4 when used at concentrations up to 10 μM. In vivo, ADX-47273 (1 and 10 mg/kg, i.p.) increases ERK and CREB phosphorylation in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex in rats. It decreases the conditioned avoidance response, apomorphine-induced climbing, as well as PCP-, apomorphine-, and amphetamine-induced locomotor activity in rats in a dose-dependent manner, indicating antipsychotic-like activity. ADX-47273 (0.1-50 mg/kg, i.p) improves recall in a novel object recognition test and reduces impulsivity in the 5-choice serial reaction time task (5CSRTT). It also enhances reversal learning in mice in the Morris water maze test.{37447}
