Bioactivity | GABAA receptor agent 8 (compoud 5e) is a potent GABAA receptor positive modulator. GABAA receptor agent 8 shows anticonvulsant activity in vitro and in vivo with low neurotoxicity. GABAA receptor agent 8 has the potential for the research of epilepsy[1]. |
Target | GABAA receptor |
Invitro | GABAA receptor agent 8 (compoud 5e) shows anticonvulsant activity with an IC50 of 0.334 µM in 4-AP induced hyper-excitability Model[1].GABAA receptor agent 8 (0.01-100 µM; 0-140 s) increases GABA-induced activation of GABAA1 receptor in a dose-dependent manner with EC50 12.02 µM. |
In Vivo | GABAA receptor agent 8 (compoud 5e) shows anticonvulsant activity in mice with an ED50 of 40.95 mg/kg and an TD50 of 372.39 mg/kg[1].GABAA receptor agent 8 specifically attenuates PTZ-induced seizures but not MES-induced seizures in mice[1]. |
