Ionotropic glutamate receptors of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) subtype play a key role in synaptic plasticity representing one of the mechanisms for learning and memory formation. They can also serve as targets for the development of novel classes of pharmaceuticals for the treatment or substantive correction of many serious neurodegenerative and psychoneurological disorders. The search and studies of various types of AMPA receptor ligands attract considerable attention from academic organizations and pharmaceutical companies all over the world. This review mainly focuses on recent advances in this field. The architecture and operational mechanism of the receptor as well as its major binding sites and ligand types are considered. Special attention is paid to the studies of mechanisms of action and novel chemotypes of AMPA receptor agonists and competitive antagonists, positive and negative allosteric modulators, auxiliary protein-dependent allosteric modulators, and ion channel blockers.
