Cell lines expressing the human metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype
5a (hmGluR5a) and hmGluR1b were used as targets in an automated
high-throughput screening (HTS) system that measures changes in
intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i)
using fluorescence detection. This functional screen was used to
identify the mGluR5-selective antagonist, SIB-1757
[6-methyl-2-(phenylazo)-3-pyridinol], which inhibited the
glutamate-induced [Ca2+]i responses at
hmGluR5 with an IC50 of 0.37 µM compared with an
IC50 of >100 µM at hmGluR1. Schild analysis demonstrated
a noncompetitive mechanism of inhibition. Pharmacophore mapping was
used to identify an additional compound, SIB-1893
[(E)-2-methyl-6-(2-phenylethenyl)pyridine], which was
also shown to block glutamate-induced increases in
[Ca2+]i at hmGluR5 with an IC50
of 0.29 µM compared with an IC50 of >100 µM at
hmGluR1. SIB-1757 and SIB-1893 showed little or no activity when tested
for agonist and antagonist activity at the other recombinant human
mGluR subtypes,
-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid,
kainate, and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors.
In rat neonatal brain slices, SIB-1757 and SIB-1893 inhibited
(S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG)-evoked inositol
phosphate accumulation in hippocampus and striatum by 60% to 80%,
with a potency similar to that observed on recombinant mGluR5. However,
in the cerebellum, a brain region with low mGluR5 expression, SIB-1757
failed to inhibit DHPG-evoked inositol phosphate accumulation. In
cultured rat cortical neurons, SIB-1757 and SIB-1893 largely inhibited
DHPG-evoked [Ca2+]i signals, revealing a
population of neurons that were less sensitive to SIB-1757 and
SIB-1893. This is the first description of highly selective,
noncompetitive mGluR5 antagonists. These compounds will be useful tools
in evaluating the role of mGluR5 in normal physiology and in animal
models of disease.
