UBP608 is an allosteric modulator of NMDA receptor family. It selectively inhibits GluN1GluN2A receptors with a 23-fold selectivity compared to GluN1GluN2D receptors.
UBP684 is an NMDAR pan-PAM. UBP684 increases the maximal l-glutamate glycine response while having minor subunit-specific effects on agonist potency. It robustly potentiates responses at all GluN1GluN2 subtypes and at neuronal NMDARs.
NAB-14 is a powerful and selective chemical compound that acts as a non-competitive antagonist for GluN2C and GluN2D receptors. With an IC50 value of 580 nM for GluN1GluN2D, NAB-14 demonstrates high potency. This compound exhibits a remarkable selectivity of more than 800-fold towards recombinant GluN2C and GluN2D when compared to GluN2A and GluN2B. Furthermore, NAB-14 possesses the ability to penetrate the blood-brain-barrier effectively [1].
PEAQX, also known as NVP-AAM077; is a competitive antagonist at the NMDA receptor. Although originally described as 100-fold selective for GluN1GluN2A receptors vs. GluN1GluN2B receptors, more detailed studies of the Ki of PEAQX revealed it only shows a 5 fold difference in affinity for GluN1GluN2A vs. GluN1GluN2B receptors. It is also a potent anticonvulsant in animal tests.
EVT-101 is a GluN2B antagonist, binding at the same GluN1GluN2B dimer interface as ifenprodil but adopting a remarkably different binding mode involving a distinct subcavity and receptor interactions.
