Description

Potent and selective GLUK5 (GluR5)-subunit containing kainate receptor antagonist (apparent KD = 402 nM); active enantiomer of UBP 296 (Cat. No. 2078). Displays ∽ 260-fold selectivity over AMPA receptors, ∽ 90-fold selectivity over recombinant human GLUK6- and GLUK2-containing kainate receptors and has little or no action at NMDA or group I mGlu receptors. Selectively blocks kainate receptor-mediated LTP induction in rat hippocampal mossy fibers. Also protects against soman-induced seizures and neuronal degeneration for up to 30 days when administered one hour after soman exposure.
