| Bioactivity | Ro4491533 is a selective, negative allosteric mGluR2/3 receptor modulator that is equally effective on both subtypes. Ro4491533 can completely block glutamate-induced calcium mobilization and glutamate-induced [35S]GTPγS binding accumulation. Ro4491533 has good pharmacokinetic properties in mice and rats, high oral bioavailability, and can pass through the blood-brain barrier. Ro4491533 can also reverse the motor inhibition effect of LY379268 in mice and show antidepressant activity in the forced swim test and tail suspension test. |
