Uses
ACDPP is a specific mGluR5 antagonist. ACDPP partially bolcks the increase of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) caused by DHPG (HY-12598A) (group I mGluR Agonist)[1].
Biological Activity
Antagonist at the mGlu 5 receptor (K i = 295 nM). Inhibits human mGlu 5 receptor-mediated calcium flux with an IC 50 of 134 nM.
