Allosteric modulation of Class C GPCRs: a novel approach for the treatment of CNS disorders
Open accessAbstract
Allosteric modulation has emerged as an innovative pharmacological approach to selectively activate or inhibit several Class C GPCRs. Of the Class C GPCRs, metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors represent the most promising candidates for clinical success, and both positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) and negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) of mGluRs have demonstrated therapeutic potential for a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders such as pain, depression, anxiety, cognition, Fragile X syndrome, Parkinson’s disease and schizophrenia.

Allosteric modulators can be classified into PAMs, NAMs, and SAMs based on effects on receptor.
“According to their effects on the receptor, allosteric modulators can be classified into three categories: positive allosteric modulators (PAMs), which improve the action of orthosteric effectors but have no intrinsic activity; negative allosteric modulators (NAMs), which inhibit the function of orthosteric effectors; and silent allosteric modulators (SAMs), also known as neutral allosteric modul”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
