LY-487,379

LY-487,379 is a drug used in scientific research that acts as a selective positive allosteric modulator for the metabotropic glutamate receptor group II subtype mGluR₂.[1] It is used to study the structure and function of this receptor subtype,[2][3] and LY-487,379 along with various other mGluR_2/3 agonists and positive modulators are being investigated as possible antipsychotic and anxiolytic drugs.[4][5][6][7][8]
