MedChemExpress - Model AZD 2066 - 934282-55-0

AZD-2066 is a selective, orally active and blood-brain barrier-permeating mGluR5 antagonist. AZD 2066 activates the BDNF/trkB signaling pathway. AZD 2066 can be used in the research of neuropathic pain, major depressive disorder and gastroesophageal reflux disease[1][2][3][5].

Description：AZD-2066 is a selective, orally active and blood-brain barrier-permeating mGluR5 antagonist. AZD 2066 activates the BDNF/trkB signaling pathway. AZD 2066 can be used in the research of neuropathic pain, major depressive disorder and gastroesophageal reflux disease.

In Vitro：AZD 2066 (1-10 μM) inhibits Ca2+ response, with IC50s of 27.2, 3.56, 96.2, and 380 nM in mGlu5/HEK cells and striatal, hippocampal, and cortical cultures respectively[4]. AZD 2066 (1-10 μM) inhibits the oscillatory Ca2+ response which induced by bath application of DHPG (HY-12598A), and blocks either DHPG or Quis eﬀects in mGlu5/HEK cells[4].

In Vivo：AZD 2066 (0.3-30 mg/kg, p.o., 60 min) shows discriminative effects in rats[2]. AZD-2066 (10 µM, perfusion of brain slide) alleviates dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG)-facilitated long-term depression (LTD) expression in chronic social defeat stress (CSDS)-treated mice via BDNF/trkB signaling pathway[5]. AZD-2066 (5 mg/kg, i.p., 2 × 12 h) alleviates chronic social defeat stress (CSDS)-induced depressive behaviors in mice[5].

IC50 & Target：mGluR5
