产品描述

VU036172 is a positive allosteric modulator of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5; Ki = 195 nM).1 It is selective for mGluR5 over mGluR1, mGluR3, and mGluR4 at 10 ?M. VU036172 (20 and 50 ?M) prevents TNF-α and nitric oxide (NO) production by IFN-γ- or LPS-stimulated BV-2 and primary microglial cells.2 It reduces the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and increases the expression of Ym1 and arginase 1 in LPS-stimulated BV-2 cells when used at a concentration of 20 ?M. VU036172 (50 mg/kg) reduces the size of cortical lesions, prevents neuronal degeneration, and improves sensorimotor deficits in the beam walk test in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury (TBI), indicating improved recovery of motor function.

The anti-absence effect of mGlu5 receptor amplification with VU0360172 is maintained during and after antiepileptogenesis

Pharmacol Biochem Behav 2016 Jul-Aug;146-147:50-9.PMID:27178815DOI:10.1016/j.pbb.2016.05.004.

Purpose: Ethosuximide (ETX) is the drug of choice for the treatment of patients with absence seizures - taking into account both its efficacy, tolerability and antiepileptogenic properties. However, 47% of subjects failed in ETX-therapy, and most antiepileptic drugs have cognitive side effects. VU0360172, a positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of mGluR5, has been proposed as a new anti-absence drug. Here it is investigated whether anti-epileptogenesis induced by ETX alters the sensitivity of VU0360172, and whether cognition is affected during and after chronic ETX treatment. Method: EEG's were recorded before and after a challenge with VU0360172 in chronic ETX and in control WAG/Rij rats during and after treatment. Rats were also exposed to a cue discrimination learning task in a Y-maze both during and after treatment. At the end of the experiment, mGlu5 receptors were quantified by Western Blot analysis. Results: Antiepileptogenesis was successfully induced by ETX and VU0360172 showed a time and dose dependent anti-absence action in the control group. VU0360172 kept its anti-absence action in chronic ETX treated rats both during and after treatment, without time and dose dependency. This anti-absence effect of VU0360172 in both groups matched the lack of differences in mGluR5 expression. Chronic ETX enhanced the number of completed trials, the number of correct choices in the Y-maze and the number of consumed sucrose pallets. Significance: VU0360172 maintains its anti-absence effects after chronic treatment; as such, VU0360172 can also be used as a adjunctive therapy in patients with absence epilepsy. The enhanced motivation and cognitive performance by ETX might be mediated by the antidepressant action of ETX as expressed by an increase in the rewarding properties of sucrose pallets.

Pharmacological activation of mGlu5 receptors with the positive allosteric modulator VU0360172, modulates thalamic GABAergic transmission

Neuropharmacology 2020 Nov 1;178:108240.PMID:32768418DOI:10.1016/j.neuropharm.2020.108240.

Previous studies have shown that injection of the mGlu5 receptor positive allosteric modulator (PAM) VU0360172 into either the thalamus or somatosensory cortex markedly reduces the frequency of spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs) in the WAG/Rij model of absence epilepsy. Here we have investigated the effects of VU0360172 on GABA transport in the thalamus and somatosensory cortex, as possible modes of action underlying the suppression of SWDs. Systemic VU0360172 injections increase GABA uptake in thalamic synaptosomes from epileptic WAG/Rij rats. Consistent with this observation, VU0360172 could also enhance thalamic GAT-1 protein expression, depending on the dosing regimen. This increase in GAT-1 expression was also observed in the thalamus from non-epileptic rats (presymptomatic WAG/Rij and Wistar) and appeared to occur selectively in neurons. The tonic GABAA receptor current present in ventrobasal thalamocortical neurons was significantly reduced by VU0360172 consistent with changes in GAT-1 and GABA uptake. The in vivo effects of VU0360172 (reduction in tonic GABA current and increase in GAT-1 expression) could be reproduced in vitro by treating thalamic slices with VU0360172 for at least 1 h and appeared to be dependent on the activation of PLC. Thus, the effects of VU0360172 do not require an intact thalamocortical circuit. In the somatosensory cortex, VU0360172 reduced GABA uptake but did not cause significant changes in GAT-1 protein levels. These findings reveal a novel mechanism of regulation mediated by mGlu5 receptors, which could underlie the powerful anti-absence effect of mGlu5 receptor enhancers in animal models.

The comparative effects of mGlu5 receptor positive allosteric modulators VU0409551 and VU0360172 on cognitive deficits and signalling in the sub-chronic PCP rat model for schizophrenia

Neuropharmacology 2022 May 1;208:108982.PMID:35151699DOI:10.1016/j.neuropharm.2022.108982.

In schizophrenia, mGlu5 receptor hypofunction has been linked with neuropathology and cognitive deficits, making it an attractive therapeutic target. The cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia remains an unmet clinical need, with existing antipsychotics primarily targeting positive symptoms, with weaker and more variable effects on cognitive deficits. Using the sub-chronic phencyclidine rat model, widely shown to mimic the cognitive impairment and neuropathology of schizophrenia, we have investigated two mGlu5 receptor positive allosteric modulators (PAMs), VU0409551 and VU0360172. We compared the efficacy of these compounds in restoring cognitive deficits and, since these two PAMs have reportedly distinct signalling mechanisms, changes in mGlu5 receptor signalling molecules AKT and MAPK in the PFC. Although not effective at 0.05 and 1 mg/kg, cognitive deficits were significantly alleviated by both PAMs at 10 and 20 mg/kg. The compounds appeared to have differential effects on the scPCP-induced increases in AKT and MAPK phosphorylation: VU0409551 induced a significant decrease in expression of p-AKT, whereas VU0360172 had this effect on p-MAPK levels. Thus, the beneficial effects of PAMs on scPCP-induced cognitive impairment are accompanied by at least partial reversal of scPCP-induced elevated levels of p-MAPK and p-AKT, whose dysfunction is strongly implicated in schizophrenia pathology. These promising data imply an important role for mGlu5 receptor signalling pathways in improving cognition in the scPCP model and provide support for mGlu5 receptor PAMs as a possible therapeutic intervention for schizophrenia.

Potentiation of mGlu5 receptors with the novel enhancer, VU0360172, reduces spontaneous absence seizures in WAG/Rij rats

Neuropharmacology 2013 Mar;66:330-8.PMID:22705340DOI:10.1016/j.neuropharm.2012.05.044.

Absence epilepsy is generated by the cortico-thalamo-cortical network, which undergoes a finely tuned regulation by metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors. We have shown previously that potentiation of mGlu1 receptors reduces spontaneous occurring spike and wave discharges (SWDs) in the WAG/Rij rat model of absence epilepsy, whereas activation of mGlu2/3 and mGlu4 receptors produces the opposite effect. Here, we have extended the study to mGlu5 receptors, which are known to be highly expressed within the cortico-thalamo-cortical network. We used presymptomatic and symptomatic WAG/Rij rats and aged-matched ACI rats. WAG/Rij rats showed a reduction in the mGlu5 receptor protein levels and in the mGlu5-receptor mediated stimulation of polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis in the ventrobasal thalamus, whereas the expression of mGlu5 receptors was increased in the somatosensory cortex. Interestingly, these changes preceded the onset of the epileptic phenotype, being already visible in pre-symptomatic WAG/Rij rats. SWDs in symptomatic WAG/Rij rats were not influenced by pharmacological blockade of mGlu5 receptors with MTEP (10 or 30 mg/kg, i.p.), but were significantly decreased by mGlu5 receptor potentiation with the novel enhancer, VU0360172 (3 or 10 mg/kg, s.c.), without affecting motor behaviour. The effect of VU0360172 was prevented by co-treatment with MTEP. These findings suggest that changes in mGlu5 receptors might lie at the core of the absence-seizure prone phenotype of WAG/Rij rats, and that mGlu5 receptor enhancers are potential candidates to the treatment of absence epilepsy.

Modulation of pyramidal cell output in the medial prefrontal cortex by mGluR5 interacting with CB1

Neuropharmacology 2013 Mar;66:170-8.PMID:22521499DOI:10.1016/j.neuropharm.2012.03.024.

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) serves executive cognitive functions such as decision-making that are impaired in neuropsychiatric disorders and pain. We showed previously that amygdala-driven abnormal inhibition and decreased output of mPFC pyramidal cells contribute to pain-related impaired decision-making (Ji et al., 2010). Therefore, modulating pyramidal output is desirable therapeutic goal. Targeting metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype mGluR5 has emerged as a cognitive-enhancing strategy in neuropsychiatric disorders, but synaptic and cellular actions of mGluR5 in the mPFC remain to be determined. The present study determined synaptic and cellular actions of mGluR5 to test the hypothesis that increasing mGluR5 function can enhance pyramidal cell output. Whole-cell voltage- and current-clamp recordings were made from visually identified pyramidal neurons in layer V of the mPFC in rat brain slices. Both the prototypical mGluR5 agonist CHPG and a positive allosteric modulator (PAM) for mGluR5 (VU0360172) increased synaptically evoked spiking (E-S coupling) in mPFC pyramidal cells. The facilitatory effects of CHPG and VU0360172 were inhibited by an mGluR5 antagonist (MTEP). CHPG, but not VU0360172, increased neuronal excitability (frequency-current [F-I] function). VU0360172, but not CHPG, increased evoked excitatory synaptic currents (EPSCs) and amplitude, but not frequency, of miniature EPSCs, indicating a postsynaptic action. VU0360172, but not CHPG, decreased evoked inhibitory synaptic currents (IPSCs) through an action that involved cannabinoid receptor CB1, because a CB1 receptor antagonist (AM281) blocked the inhibitory effect of VU0360172 on synaptic inhibition. VU0360172 also increased and prolonged CB1-mediated depolarization-induced suppression of synaptic inhibition (DSI). Activation of CB1 with ACEA decreased inhibitory transmission through a presynaptic mechanism. The results show that increasing mGluR5 function enhances mPFC output. This effect can be accomplished by increasing excitability with an orthosteric agonist (CHPG) or by increasing excitatory synaptic drive and CB1-mediated presynaptic suppression of synaptic inhibition ("dis-inhibition") with a PAM (VU0360172). Therefore, mGluR5 may be a useful target in conditions of impaired mPFC output. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled 'Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors'.
