Biochem/physiol Actions

VU0409551 (JNJ-46778212) is an orally available, potent and selective biased metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 positive allosteric modulator (mGlu5 PAM). VU0409551 (JNJ-46778212) selectively potentiates mGlu5 coupling to Gaq-mediated signaling without modulation of NMDAR currents in hippocampal neurons. VU0409551 exhibits potent antipsychotic-like and cognition enhancing activity in animal models.

Allosteric modulators of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGlu5 ) are a promising therapeutic strategy for a number of neurological disorders. Multiple mGlu5 -positive allosteric modulator (PAM) chemotypes have been discovered that act as either pure PAMs or as PAM-agonists in

Neuron, 86(4), 1029-1040 (2015-05-06)
Schizophrenia is associated with disruptions in N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptor subtype (NMDAR)-mediated excitatory synaptic signaling. The metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGlu5) is a closely associated signaling partner with NMDARs and regulates NMDAR function in forebrain regions implicated in the pathology
