Description

MK-8768 is a highly potent, orally bioavailable and selective class of mGluR2 negative allosteric modulator (IC50 of 9 .6nM) with excellent brain permeability.

IC50 & Target

IC50:9.6 nM(mGluR2)[1]

In Vitro

MK-8768 (40 n M, 5 min) inhibits the viability of mGluR2 in the overexpress CHOdhfr- cells with a IC50 value of 0.9 nM.[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay

Cell Line: CHOdhfr- cells expressing human mGluR2[1]
Concentration: 40 nM
Incubation Time: 5 min
Result: Inhibits the viability of mGluR2.
In Vivo

MK-8768 has a preferred administration of intramuscular (i.m.)[1].
MK-8768 improves object retrieval following scopolamine impairment obviously which mains a good executive function and attention in the Rhesus monkey ORD model.[1].

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.
