Precisely controlled synaptic glutamate concentration is essential for the normal function of the N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. Atypical fluctuations in synaptic glutamate homeostasis lead to aberrant NMDA receptor activity that results in the pathogenesis of neurological and psychiatric disorders. Therefore, glutamate concentration-dependent NMDA receptor modulators would be clinically useful agents with fewer on-target adverse effects. In the present study, we have characterized a novel compound (CNS4) that potentiates NMDA receptor currents based on glutamate concentration. This compound alters glutamate potency and exhibits no voltage-dependent effect. Patch-clamp electrophysiology recordings confirmed agonist concentration-dependent changes in maximum inducible currents. Dynamic Ca2+ and Na+ imaging assays using rat brain cortical, striatal and cerebellar neurons revealed CNS4 potentiated ion influx through native NMDA receptor activity. Overall, CNS4 is novel in chemical structure, mechanism of action and agonist concentration-biased allosteric modulatory effect. This compound or its future analogs will serve as useful candidates to develop drug-like compounds for the treatment of treatment-resistant schizophrenia and major depression disorders associated with hypoglutamatergic neurotransmission.

Abstract: A series of novel 2-(5-aryl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-diones were synthesized in three steps. In the first step, treatment of substituted benzoyl chlorides with ammonium thiocyanate gave the corresponding benzoyl isothiocyanate

The novel compounds with the chemical structure of N-({4-[N′-(substituted)sulfamoyl]phenyl}carbamothioyl)benzamide (1a–g) and 4-fluoro-N-({4-[N′-(substituted)sulfamoyl]phenyl}carbamothioyl)benzamide (2a–g) were synthesized as potent and selective human carbonic anhydrase (hCA) I and hCA II candidate inhibitors. The aryl part was changed to sulfacetamide, sulfaguanidine, sulfanilamide, sulfathiazole, sulfadiazine, sulfamerazine, and sulfametazine. The Ki values of compounds 1a–g were in the range of 20.73 ± 4.32 to 59.55 ± 13.07 nM (hCA I) and 5.69 ± 0.43 to 44.81 ± 1.08 nM (hCA II), whereas the Ki values of compounds 2a–g were in the range of 13.98 ± 2.57 to 75.74 ± 13.51 nM (hCA I) and 8.15 ± 1.5 to 49.86 ± 6.18 nM (hCA II). Comparing the Ki values of the final compounds and acetazolamide, compound 1c with the sulfanilamide moiety (Ki = 5.69 ± 0.43 nM, 8.8 times) and 2f with the sulfamerazine moiety (Ki = 8.15 ± 1.5 nM, 6.2 times) demonstrated promising and selective inhibitory effects against the hCA II isoenzyme, the main target protein in glaucoma. Furthermore, compounds 1d (Ki = 20.73 ± 4.32, 4 times) and 2d (Ki = 13.98 ± 2.57, 5.9 times), which have the sulfathiazole moiety, were found as potent hCA I inhibitors. Compounds 1c and 2f can be considered as the lead compounds determined in the present study, which can be investigated further to alleviate glaucoma symptoms.
