Abstract

Alzheimer’s disease is a debilitating condition that affects the nervous system. The current method of treating Alzheimer’s diseaseis ineffective at achieving long-term control of the disease and is also associated with a variety of side effects, such as dyskinesia. The development of non-dopaminergic treatments for Alzheimer’s disease(AD) is aimed at creating therapies that can improve motor deficits without the risk of the adverse chronic effects that are associated with traditional dopaminergic medications. The metabotropic glutamate receptor mGluR4, which is currently receiving attention, is one example of such a target. The activation of mGluR4 has the potential to be presented as a novel and promising treatment for Parkinson's disease. In addition, it is believed that a valid and viable treatment option for Alzheimer’s diseaseis the application of a positive allosteric modulator at the orthosteric glutamate site as opposed to the use of direct acting agonists.
