Biological Activity for UBP 296

UBP 296 is a selective GluK1 (formally GluR5) subunit containing kainate receptor antagonist (apparent K_D = 1.09 μM). Displays ~ 90-fold selectivity over AMPA receptors and recombinant hGluK2 (formally hGluR6) and GluK5 (formally KA2) containing kainate receptors. Has little or no action at NMDA or group I mGlu receptors. Selectively blocks kainate receptor-mediated LTP induction in rat hippocampal mossy fibers.

Active Enantiomer also available.

Please refer to IUPHAR Guide to Pharmacology for the most recent naming conventions.
