DL-AP4 sodium
DL-AP4 sodium (2-Amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid sodium) is an agonist for metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR). DL-AP4 sodium binds to mGluR4, activates the signaling pathway that is negatively correlated with adenylate cyclase, and inhibits the Forskolin (HY-15371)-induced production of cAMP. DL-AP4 sodium is also an inhibitor for ON channel, that reduces the sensitivity of photoreceptors to brightness changes.
