Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), mediate excitatory synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. Potent and selective antagonists of the type I mGluRs (mGluR1 and mGluR5) are of interest as novel therapeutics for the treatment of various CNS disorders, such as pain, epilepsy, and stroke.{21993,21995} NPS 2390 is a first generation quinoxaline derivative that acts as a noncompetitive antagonist of mGluR1 and mGluR5 with IC50 values equal to 5.2 and 82 nM, respectively).{21992} At concentrations up to 30 μM, NPS 2390 does not affect mGluR2 or mGluR8 or a standard collection of 37 additional receptors, ion channels, and enzymes.{21992} At a dose of 10 mg/kg, NPS 2390 displaced the specifically bound mGlu1R-selective antagonist, [3H]R214127, in rat cerebellum.{21994}

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}

The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
