Ketamine has rapid and long-lasting antidepressant effects, but its clinical use is limited by its undesirable side effects. This review focuses on the discovery of a novel AMPA-R potentiator, TAK-653, with low agonistic activity, which may overcome the limitations of known AMPA-R potentiators. The study highlights the importance of AMPA-R activation in mediating the antidepressant effects of ketamine.
Ketamine exerts rapid and long-lasting antidepressant effects in patients with treatment-resistant depression. However, its clinical use is limited by its undesirable psychotomimetic side effects. Accumulating evidence from preclinical studies has shown that the antidepressant effects of ketamine are dependent on alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPA-R) activation, which triggers activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin pathway and brain-derived neurotrophic factor release. Thus, AMPA-R has emerged as a promising new target for novel antidepressants with a rapid onset of action. However, almost all known AMPA-R potentiators carry the risk of a narrow bell-shaped dose-response curve and a poor safety margin against seizures. Our data suggest that agonistic activity is not only related to the risks of bell-shaped dose-response curves and seizures but also to the reduced synaptic transmission and procognitive effects of AMPA-R potentiators. In this review, we describe our original screening approach that led to the discovery of an investigational AMPA-R potentiator with low agonistic activity, TAK-653. We further review the in vitro and in vivo profiles of TAK-653, including its procognitive and antidepressant-like effects, as well as its safety profile, in comparison with known AMPA-R potentiators with agonistic activity and AMPA, an AMPA-R agonist. The low agnostic activity of TAK-653 may overcome limitations of known AMPA-R potentiators.
