Biological target:
SIB-1893 displays an IC50 value of 0.3 μM at hmGlu5, compared with > 100 μM at hmGlu1b, hmGlu2, hmGlu6, hmGlu7 and hmGlu8.
In vitro activity:
SIB-1893 acts as a positive allosteric modulator for hmGluR4, enhancing the efficacy of L-AP4 in guanosine 5'-O-(3-[(35)S]thiotriphosphate binding and cAMP studies. SIB-1893's effects were receptor-specific, dependent on activation, and fully blocked by the mGluR4 antagonist (RS)-alpha-cyclopropyl-4-phosphonophenylglycine (CPPG). SIB-1893 caused a two-fold decrease in K(D) in [(3)H]L-AP4 binding without affecting B(max).

In vivo activity:
SIB-1893, a non-competitive antagonist of metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5, showed no impact on pentetrazole-induced convulsions in mice at doses from 0.25 to 10 mg/kg. It did not alter the protective effects of various antiepileptic drugs, and the combined treatment with these drugs did not cause motor impairment, except for phenobarbital, which led to long-term memory disturbances.
