Efficient Modulation of γ-Aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptors by Piperine Derivatives
Piperine activates TRPV1 (transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 receptor) receptors and modulates γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAAR). We have synthesized a library of 76 piperine analogues and analyzed their effects on GABAAR by means of a two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique. GABAAR were expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Structure-activity relationships (SARs) were ...
متن کاملIsoflurane regulates atypical type-A γ-aminobutyric acid receptors in alveolar type II epithelial cells.
BACKGROUND Volatile anesthetics act primarily through upregulating the activity of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors. They also exhibit antiinflammatory actions in the lung. Rodent alveolar type II (ATII) epithelial cells express GABAA receptors and the inflammatory factor cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). The goal of this study was to determine whether human ATII cells also express GABAA re...
متن کاملAn Efficient Synthesis of Enantiomerically Pure γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) Derivatives
Chiral γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) derivatives are the normal inhibitory neurotransmitters in the mammalian central nervous system. In this paper, enantiopure GABA derivatives 6 were synthesized via reduction/cyclization/hydrolysis cascade reactions from the highly enantioselective β-aryl-γnitroalkanes Michael adducts 4, which was obtained from asymmetric Michael addition of S, S’-diphenyldithio...
متن کاملAlcohol Modulation of Extra-synaptic Gamma-aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptors
Development of effective treatment agents for the alcohol use disorders requires the detailed understanding of molecular targets of alcohol in the brain. The gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are the major molecular targets of alcohol in the central nervous system. Mediating inhibitory neurotransmission upon GABA binding in the vertebrate central nervous system, GABAARs are het...
متن کاملAntagonism of neurosteroid modulation of native γ-aminobutyric acid receptors by (3α,5α)-17-phenylandrost-16-en-3-ol
Endogenous pregnane neurosteroids are allosteric modulators at γ-aminobutyric acid type-A (GABAA) receptors at nanomolar concentrations. There is direct evidence for multiple distinct neurosteroid binding sites on GABAA receptors, dependent upon subunit composition and stoichiometry. This view is supported by the biphasic kinetics of various neuroactive steroids, enantioselectivity of some neur...
