Science 328, 1709, 2010 The “perfect” drug: 1. inhibits the reinforcing properties of drugs and associated cues 2. reinstates the mechanisms of control by the PFC over the VTA-NAc 3. interferes with maladaptive mechanisms leading to hedonic allostasis 4. relieves physical and motivational withdrawal symptoms 5. prevents relapse in response to drug priming, context, and stress 6. has an impact on the negative reinforcement generated by the stress neural circuit (extended amygdala) mGlu2 mGlu3 mGlu1 mGlu5 mGlu4 mGlu6 mGlu7 mGlu8 mGlu5 receptors: potential targets for The treatment of addiction GS MAPK, PI-3-K Negative allosteric modulators of mGlu5 receptors: Fragile X, GERD, migraine, nicotine addiction, Parkinson’s disease/L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias Fenobam AFQ056 ADX10059 ADX48621 STX107 AZD2516 Reinforcing effects of cocaine are absent in mGlu5 knockout mice (Chiamulera et al., Nature, 2001) Activation of mGlu5 receptors is required for incentive motivation for the reinforcer (Markou, Biol.
