Description

(RS)-MCPG (alpha-MCPG) is a competitive and selective group I/group II metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) antagonist. (RS)-MCPG blocks theta-burst stimulation (TBS)-induced shifts in both juvenile and neonatal rat hippocampal neurons[1][2].

IC50 & Target

group I/group II mGluR[1]

In Vitro

MCPG can block group I (mGluR1 and mGluR5) and group II receptors (mGluR2 and mGluR3)[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

(RS)-MCPG (alpha-MCPG; 500 μM) blocks the TBS-induced shifts in EGABA in either juvenile or neonatal neurons[1].
Pretreatment with the low dose of (RS)-MCPG (25 nM; i.c.; daily; 5 days) significantly attenuates amphetamine-induced locomotor activity in 10-day-old male and female rats of Sprague-Dawley descent[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
