Biological Activity for LY 379268

LY 379268 is a highly selective group II mGlu receptor agonist (EC₅₀ values are 2.69 and 4.48 nM for hmGlu₂ and hmGlu₃ respectively) that displays > 80-fold selectivity over group I and group III receptors. Provides protection against NMDA-mediated cell death in vitro and offers almost complete protection against CA1 hippocampal damage following global ischemia in gerbils. Orally and systemically active. LY379268 disodium salt also available.
