Abstract
⺠Targeting glutamate holds great promise for improved treatment of anxiety disorders. ⺠Anxiolytic activity of mGluR2/3 agonists have achieved the greatest success to date. ⺠Positive and negative allosteric modulators offer an improved benefit/risk profile. ⺠Translational models of anxiety and stress disorders respond to glutamate modulation. ⺠Activity in standard anxiety tests must be replicated in translational animal models.
