Antipsychotic action of selective group II metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist MGS0008 and MGS0028 on conditioned avoidance responses in the rat.
    Life sciences, 2003, Aug-15, Volume: 73, Issue:13

    The present study was designed to investigate the antipsychotic-like effects of selective group II metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) agonists, 5-[2-[4-(6-fluoro-1H-indole-3-yl) piperidin-1-yl]ethyl]-4-(4-fluorophenyl)thiazole-2-carboxylic acid amide (MGS0008) and (1R, 2S, 5S, 6S)-2-amino-6-fluoro-4-oxobicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,6-dicarboxylic acid monohydrate (MGS0028) on conditioned avoidance responses in rats. MGS0008 (1, 3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) and MGS0028 (0.3, 1 and 3 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly and reduced conditioned avoidance responses in a dose-dependent fashion. Similar effects were seen with LY418426 (0.3, 1 and 3 mg/kg, p.o.), but not with LY354740 (3, 10 and 30 mg/kg, p.o.), both of which are selective agonists for group II mGluR. Since this effect is seen with a wide range of antipsychotics, such as haloperidol and clozapine [Life Sciences 71 (2002) 947], group II mGluR agonists deserve further attention for possible antipsychotic activity.

(2S,1'S,2'S,3'R)-2-(2'-carboxy-3'-methylcyclopropyl) glycine is a potent and selective metabotropic group 2 receptor agonist with anxiolytic properties.
    Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2002, Aug-15, Volume: 45, Issue:17

    The asymmetric synthesis and biological activity of (2S,1'S,2'S,3'R)-2-(2'-carboxy-3'-methylcyclopropyl) glycine 7 and its epimer at the C3' center 6 are described. Compound 7 is a highly potent and selective agonist for group 2 metabotropric glutamate receptors (mGluRs). It is also systemically 4 orders of magnitude more active in the fear-potentiated startle model of anxiety in rats than the rigid constrained bicyclic system LY354740. Therefore, we have shown that high molecular complexity of conformationally constrained bicyclic systems is not a requirement to achieve highly selective and potent group 2 mGluRs agonists.
