Biochem/physiol Actions

Positive AMPA glutamate receptor modulator.
CX546 has antipsychotic functionality and has the potential to treat schizophrenia. It improves the defects associated with the prepulse inhibition (PPI) and latent inhibition (LI) in mice lacking metabotropic glutamate receptor type 5 (mGluR5). Additionally, CX546 potentiates synaptic plasticity, elicits neuroprotection and promotes the neurotrophin expression.

Application

CX546 has been used as positive allosteric modulator for the glutamatergic receptor α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) in mice.

General description

CX546, a benzoylpiperidine derivative ampakine is an analog of CX516.
