A new phenylglycine derivative, (RS)-2-chloro-5-hydroxyphenylglycine (CHPG), has been synthesized and shown to selectively activate mGlu5a receptors, compared to mGlu1 alpha receptors, when expressed in CHO cells. This selective mGlu5 receptor agonist also potentiates NMDA-induced depolarizations in rat hippocampal slices. CHPG may be a useful tool for studying the role of mGlu5 receptors in the central nervous system.
一种新的苯甘氨酸衍生物,(RS)-2-氯-5-羟基苯甘氨酸(CHPG),已被合成,并且当在CHO细胞中表达时,与mGlu1α受体相比,它能选择性地激活mGlu5a受体。这种选择性的mGlu5受体激动剂还能增强大鼠海马切片中NMDA诱导的去极化。CHPG可能是研究mGlu5受体在中枢神经系统中作用的有用工具。
