ionotropic glutamate receptors

IEM 1754 2HBr (IEM 1754 dihydrobromide) is a selective AMPA kainate receptor blockers for GluR1 and GluR3 with IC50 of 6 μM.

LY450108 is a potentiator of the AMPA receptor that can be used in Parkinson's disease studies.

Bupivacaine hydrochloride (Vivacaine) is a long-acting, amide-type local anesthetic. Bupivacaine hydrochloride reversibly binds to specific sodium ion channels in the neuronal membrane, resulting in a decrease in the voltage-dependent membrane permeability to sodium ions and membrane stabilization; inhibition of depolarization and nerve impulse conduction; and a reversible loss of sensation.

Isoxsuprine hydrochloride (Isolait) is a beta-adrenergic agonist that causes direct relaxation of uterine and vascular smooth muscle.

Piracetam (UCB-6215), a cyclic derivative of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is used in therapy of the extensive cognitive disorders.

Orphenadrine hydrochloride (Mephenamin) is a muscarinic antagonist used to treat drug-induced parkinsonism and to relieve pain from muscle spasm.

Memantine hydrochloride (Memantine HCl) is an AMANTADINE derivative that has some dopaminergic effects. Memantine hydrochloride has been proposed as an antiparkinson agent.

1-Aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid (ACBC) is a NMDA receptor partial agonist. 1-Aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid act at the glycine site, NR1[1].

1. Linalool (Linalol), a natural compound of the essential oils, has been shown to have antinociceptive, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. 2. Linalool was protected against LPS/GalN-induced liver injury through induction of antioxidant defense via Nrf2 activating and reduction inflammatory response via NF-κB inhibition. 3. Linalool biosynthesis and accumulation might be involved in plant defense against bacterial and fungal pathogens and be associated with field resistance to citrus canker. 4. Linalool significantly increased the expression of antioxidant enzymes regulated by Nrf-2 and diminished lung tissue levels of several pro-inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6.

L-Phenylalanine (3-Phenyl-L-alanine) is an essential amino acid and the precursor of the amino acid tyrosine, acts as an antagonist at α2δ calcium channels.

Decanoic Acid (Caprynic acid) acts as a non-competitive AMPA receptor antagonist.

Flupirtine maleate (Katadolon maleate), a centrally acting non-opioid analgesia, is the salt form of Flupirtine. It is an NMDA receptor antagonist , and also a specific neuronal potassium channel opener.

N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid is an amino acid that, as the D-isomer, is the defining agonist for the NMDA (N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid) receptor subtype of glutamate receptors.

L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt (MSG) (Monosodium glutamate) is an activator of mGlu1 receptor.

Omberacetam (Noopept) is a synthetic dipeptide that has been shown to produce positive nootropic and cognitive effects in animal models by a mechanism similar to other related racetam compounds.

Sunifiram (DM-235) is a potent nootropic agent, known for enhancing cognitive functions, memory, and learning abilities through modulating neurotransmitter activity, particularly via the AMPA receptor.

IDRA-21 is a positive AMPA receptor modulator.

D-Serine ((R)-Serine), an endogenous amino acid, is a potent co-agonist at the NMDA glutamate receptor.

Cycloleucine is an antagonist of NMDA receptor associated glycine receptor with a Ki of 600 μM. Cycloleucine is also a competitive inhibitor of S-adenosyl-methionine mediated methylation with anxiolytic and cytostatic effects.

glycine (2-Aminoacetic acid) is a non-essential amino acid. It is found primarily in gelatin and silk fibroin and used therapeutically as a nutrient. It is also a fast inhibitory neurotransmitter.

6-Methoxy-2-naphthoic acid (6-Methoxy-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid) is an modulator of NMDAR.

NMDA-IN-1 is a potent and NR2B-selective antagonist of NMDA, with an NMDA Ki of 0.85 nM and an NR2B Ca2+ influx IC50 of 9.7 nM.

BZAD01 is a selective NMDA NR1A/2B receptor antagonist.

D-AP5 (D-APV) is an NMDA receptor antagonist.
