Description: LY 341495 is a potent and selective orthosteric antagonist for the group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR2/3). Ki/IC50 values of LY-341495 are 2.3, 1.3, 173, 990, 6800, 8200 and 22000 nM for human mGlu2, mGlu3, mGlu8 , mGlu7a, mGlu1a, mGlu5a and mGlu4a receptors respectively. It is used in scientific research in several different areas, showing antidepressant effects in animal models, increasing the behavioural effects of hallucinogenic drugs in animal tests, and increasing the analgesic effects of μ-opioid agonists, as well as modulating dopamine receptor function.

Product Data:
Biological target: LY341495 is a metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) antagonist with IC50s of 21 nM, 14 nM, 7.8 μM, 8.2 μM, 170 nM, 990 nM, 22 μM for mGlu2, mGlu3, mGlu1a, mGlu5a, mGlu8, mGlu7, and mGlu4 receptors, respectively.
In vitro activity: Using membranes from cells expressing human mGlu2 and mGlu3 receptors, [3H]-LY341495 (1 nM) specific binding was > 90% of total binding. At an approximate K(D) concentration for [3H]-LY341495 binding to human mGlu2 and mGlu3 receptors (1 nM), no appreciable specific binding of [3H-]LY341495 was found in membranes of cells expressing human mGlu1a, mGlu5a, mGlu4a, mGlu6, or mGlu7a receptors. Reference: Neuropharmacology. 1999 Oct;38(10):1519-29. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10530814/
In vivo activity: To clarify the role of mGlu2/3 receptor antagonists in one aspect of cognition, the present study investigated the effects of a broad range of doses of the mGlu2/3 receptor antagonist LY341495 on post-training recognition memory components (storage and/or retrieval) in rats. The highest LY341495 doses administered (0.3, 1, and 3 mg/kg) disrupted performance in this recognition memory procedure in rats at all delay conditions tested, whereas administration of lower doses (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg) did not impair recognition memory. Moreover, administration of the low LY341495 doses (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg) counteracted the extinction of recognition memory.
