Activity MK-5435 is a potent and selective allosteric mGluR1 antagonist, inhibiting human and rat mGluR1 with IC50 of 4.3 and 3.6 nM, respectively. It is selective over mGluR5 (IC50 = 1.5 µM), mGluR2 and mGluR8 (IC50 = 10 µM), and has no affinity for the quisqualic binding site (IC50 >10 µM). in vivo, following an oral dose of 1 mg/kg, plasma and brain concentrations in mice were 0.17 µM and 0.45 nmol/g respectively, at 30 min post-dose1.

Our bioassay
Alomone Labs MK-5435 inhibits mGluR1 mediated Ca2+ mobilization in U2OS cells.Dose-response of normalized inhibition of human mGluR1 mediated, L-Glutamate evoked Ca2+ mobilization by MK-5435 (#M-265), showing complete inhibition at 10 µM. hmGluR1-expressing cells were loaded with calcium-sensitive dye, incubated with a range of concentrations of MK-5435, and stimulated by 15 µM L-Glutamate (EC80). Changes in intracellular Ca2+ following stimulation were detected as changes in maximum relative fluorescence (RLU) using FLIPRTETRA™.

Scientific background
MK-5435 is an allosteric negative modulator of mGluR1 receptors. This synthetic compound demonstrates high potency and selective antagonistic activities towards the receptor with IC50 values of 4.3 + 1.3 nM1.
Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) are G protein coupled receptors (GPCR) that play an important role in synaptic plasticity and other neuro-physiological and pathological processes including a major role in central sensitization and neuropathic pain. Type 1 mGluRs are mainly found on post-synaptic neurons and are known to affect the fate of neuronal progenitor cells and neural stem cell and the formation of the hippocampus2.
Target mGluR1 receptor
