The present invention discloses methods of modulating the activity of Group I mGluRs using a defined class of benzamide compounds. In one embodiment, methods of modulating the activity of mGluR1 are provided. In another embodiment, methods of modulating the activity of mGluR5 are provided. In still another embodiment, methods of simultaneously modulating the activities of both mGluR1 and mGluR5 are provided. The present invention also provides methods of treating diseases or disorders which are mediated in full or in part by Group I mGluRs using one or more compounds belonging to the defined class of benzamide compounds. The present invention further provides methods of preventing diseases or disorders which are mediated in full or in part by Group I mGluRs using one or more compounds belonging to the defined class of compounds. Diseases and disorders contemplated include, inter alia, diseases and disorders of the central nervous system, the peripheral nervous system, the gastrointestinal system, the circulatory system, skin, retina, brain, heart, and lungs.
本发明公开了利用一类明确定义的苯甲酰胺化合物调节I类mGluRs活性的方法。在一个实施例中,提供了调节mGluR1活性的方法。在另一个实施例中,提供了调节mGluR5活性的方法。在另一个实施例中,提供了同时调节mGluR1和mGluR5活性的方法。本发明还提供了利用属于明确定定义的苯甲酰胺化合物类的一个或多个化合物治疗由I类mGluRs完全或部分介导的疾病或紊乱的方法。本发明还提供了利用属于明确定定义的化合物类的一个或多个化合物预防由I类mGluRs完全或部分介导的疾病或紊乱的方法。所考虑的疾病和紊乱包括中枢神经系统、外周神经系统、胃肠系统、循环系统、皮肤、视网膜、大脑、心脏和肺等疾病和紊乱。
