DCG-IV is a potent agonist of group II mGluRs with EC50s of 0.35 and 0.09 μM for mGlu2R and mGlu3R, reapectively. DCG-IV is also a competitive antagonist at group I (IC50: mGlu1R/5R=389/630 μM) and III receptors (IC50: mGlu4R/6R/7R/8R= 22.5/39.6/40.1/32 μM). DCG-IV has anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects.

Description

DCG-IV is a potent agonist of group II mGluRs with EC50s of 0.35 and 0.09 μM for mGlu2R and mGlu3R, reapectively. DCG-IV is also a competitive antagonist at group I (IC50: mGlu1R/5R=389/630 μM) and III receptors (IC50: mGlu4R/6R/7R/8R= 22.5/39.6/40.1/32 μM). DCG-IV has anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects[1][2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
