Summary: | Amino diacid 3, a highly selective competitive GluR5 kainate receptor antagonist, exhibited high GluR5 receptor affinity and selectivity over other glutamate receptors. Its diethyl ester prodrug 4 was orally active in two models of migraine: the neurogenic dural plasma protein extravasation model and the nucleus caudalis c-fos expression model. These data suggest that a GluR5 kainate receptor antagonist might be an efficacious antimigraine therapy with a novel mechanism of action. |
