Primary TargetGlycine modulatory site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex

Target IC₅₀: 38 nM in blocking 3H-glycine binding to rat forebrain membrane; 131 µM in blocking NMDA-induced release of arachidonic acid; 131 µM in cerebellar granule cells

General description

An agonist for the glycine modulatory site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex. Mimics the effects of glycine on the NMDA receptor ion channel and blocks ³H-glycine binding to rat forebrain membrane (IC₅₀ = 38 nM). Blocks NMDA-induced release of arachidonic acid (IC₅₀ = 131 µM) in cerebellar granule cells. Reduces NMDA-induced cell death in hippocampal neurons.

A potent and selective ligand for the glycine modulatory site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex. Blocks ³H-glycine binding to rat forebrain membranes (IC₅₀ = 38 nM).
