Bioactivity | Troriluzole, a third-generation, tripeptide prodrug of Riluzole (HY-B0211), is an orally active glutamate modulator. Troriluzole reduces synaptic glutamate level and increases the synaptic glutamate absorption. Troriluzole has the potential for Alzheimer disease and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)[1][2]. | ||||||||||||
Target | glutamate | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Troriluzole is absorbed systemically and cleaves into riluzole by aminopeptidases[1]. | ||||||||||||
