GET73 (Gamma hydroxybutyric acid analogue) is an negative allosteric modulator of mGluR5. GET73 is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter. GET73 has anti-alcohol and anxiolytic properties.

Quetiapine (ICI204636) is used for the therapy of schizophrenia, and for the treatment of acute manic episodes associated with bipolar I disorder. The mechanism of quetiapine' action is thought by mediated through antagonist activity at serotonin and dopamine receptors. Specifically, the D1 and D2 dopamine, the α1 adrenoreceptor and α2 adrenoreceptor, and 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 serotonin receptor subtypes are antagonized. Quetiapine also can inhibit the histamine H1 receptor.

Fenobam shows inverse agonist activity which blocks the mGlu5 receptor basal activity(IC50: 84 nM). Fenobam has anxiolytic activity. Fenobam is a selective and non-competitive mGluR5 antagonist acting at an allosteric modulatory site (Kd values are 54 and 31 nM for rat and human recombinant mGlu5 receptors, respectively).

Flupentixol dihydrochloride is used in therapy of schizophrenia as well as in anxiolytic and depressive disorders.

Anxiolytic nonsedative agent-1 (TCS 1205) is a potent and selective GABAA agonist. Anxiolytic nonsedative agent-1 shows appreciable affinity for the BzR in bovine brain membranes with Kis of 14, 121, 239 nM for α1β2γ2, α2β2γ2, α5β3γ2, respectively. Anxiolytic nonsedative agent-1 shows α2 selective efficacy in vitro and anxioselective effects in vivo.

Gardenin A shows neurotrophic effects via activating MAPK ERK, PKC, and PKA. Gardenin A exhibits antidepressant, anticonvulsant and anxiolytic effects.

Lesopitron HCl is a 5-HT1A receptor agonist with anxiolytic effects that reverses dark avoidance behavior associated with cocaine withdrawal in mice.

SB-224289 hydrochloride (SB-224289A) is a selective antagonist of 5-HT1B receptor, with anxiolytic effect.

SR10067 is a potent, selective, and brain-penetrant agonist of Rev-Erbβ (IC50 = 160 nM) and Rev-Erbα (IC50 = 170 nM) with anxiolytic activity.

Vofopitant (GR 205171) is a potent NK1 receptor antagonist with anxiolytic and antiemetic activity for the study of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Naluzotan(PRX 00023) is a novel and potent 5-HT1A agonist with IC50 and Ki values of approximately 20 nM and 5.1 nM, respectively.Naluzotan is a potent hERG K+ channel blocker with an IC50 value of 3800 nM.Naluzotan exhibits anxiolytic activity and can be used to study depression.

Darigabat (PF-06372865) is an orally active and selective GABAA receptor modulator that crosses the blood-brain barrier and exhibits anxiolytic activity, with Ki values of 2.9 nM, 21 nM, and 134 nM for α2, α1 PAM, and α2 PAM, respectively.Darigabat is used in the study of anxiety disorders and epilepsy.

SB 216641 hydrochloride (SB-216641A) is a selective 5-HT1B D receptor antagonist with anxiolytic properties that antagonizes the vasoconstrictor response mediated by sumatriptan. 10-O-Methylprotosapphosporin is an HbF inducer that can be used in the study of metabolic disorders and diabetes.

SCH 221510 is an orally available, selective and potent NOP agonist with an EC50 of 12 nM and a Ki of 0.3 nM.SCH 221510 has anxiolytic activity and can be used to study neurological disorders.

Lesopitron is an anxiolytic with pre- and postsynaptic 5-HT1A agonist activity and is more effective than 5-HT1A agonists in rat social interaction and marmoset anxiety models. lesopitron counteracts benzodiazepine withdrawal-induced anxiety in rodents with low acute toxicity and does not potentiate the effects of alcohol or barbiturates.

Alpidem (Ananxyl) is an anxiolytic drug from the imidazopyridine family. Alpidem does not produce sedative effects at normal doses, and is instead used specifically for the treatment of anxiety. Alpidem has nanomolar binding affinity for both the central benzodiaze
