(S)-MCPG ((+)-MCPG) is a potent group I/II metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluRs) antagonist and the active isomer of (RS)-MCPG (HY-100371). (S)-MCPG can be used for the study of the function of mGluRs in spatial learning.

(S)-MCPG (100 μM) has no detectable effects on basal spine formation or elimination mechanisms in WT slice cultures. (S)-MCPG prevents the increase in spine turnover triggered by TBS and interferes with the mechanisms of activity-dependent spine stabilization in Hippocampal slice cultures.

西域 has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

MCPG (intraventricular injection; 20 μg) treated rat are slower to learn the task and takes longer to reach the platform than vehicle injected animals. On days 2 and 3, MCPG rats has a significant longer escape latency and the measure of search error is significantly longer on each of the first 3 days. On day 4, MCPG-treated animals reaches the same level of performance as control animals in Morris water maze.
