Negative effect of treatment with mGluR5 negative allosteric modulator AFQ056 on blood biomarkers in young individuals with Fragile X syndrome [PDF]
Background: Fragile X syndrome, with an approximate incidence rate of 1 in 4000 males to 1 in 8000 females, is the most prevalent genetic cause of heritable intellectual disability and the most common monogenic cause of autism spectrum disorder. The full

The action of a negative allosteric modulator at the dopamine D2 receptor is dependent upon sodium ions. [PDF]
Sodium ions (Na+) allosterically modulate the binding of orthosteric agonists and antagonists to many class A G protein-coupled receptors, including the dopamine D2 receptor (D2R).

Negative allosteric modulation of the glucagon receptor by RAMP2
Abstract Receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) modulate the activity of many Family B heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs). The glucagon receptor (GCGR), a Family B GPCR responsible for maintenance of proper blood sugar levels, interacts with RAMP2, though the ...

Negative allosteric modulation of GluN1/GluN3 NMDA receptors [PDF]
NMDA receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that mediate excitatory neurotransmission. Most native NMDA receptors are tetrameric assemblies of two glycine-binding GluN1 and two glutamate-binding GluN2 subunits. Co-assembly of the glycine-binding GluN1 with glycine-binding GluN3 subunits (GluN3A-B) creates glycine activated receptors that possess ...

A Thieno[2,3- d]pyrimidine Scaffold Is a Novel Negative Allosteric Modulator of the Dopamine D2 Receptor. [PDF]
Recently, a novel negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of the D 2-like dopamine receptors 1 was identified through virtual ligand screening. This ligand comprises a thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffold that does not feature in known dopaminergic ligands ...
