guvacine/癲癇性発作

The pivaloyloxymethyl esters 4 and 5 of the amino acid GABA uptake inhibitors guvacine and nipecotic acid, respectively, were synthesized as potential prodrugs. The half-lives of 4 and 5 for conversion into the parent amino acids were determined under approximate physiological conditions in the

(3R)-1-[4,4-bis(3-methyl-2-thienyl)-3-butenyl]-3-piperidinecarboxylic acid 1 (tiagabine, Gabitril) is a potent and selective gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake inhibitor with proven anticonvulsant efficacy in humans. This drug, which has a unique mechanism of action among marketed anticonvulsant

Ipomoea tyrianthina Lindley (syn. I. orizabensis Pelletan, Lebed. ex Steud., Convolvulaceae) is known as a purgative, but it has been also used in Mexican traditional medicine in the treatment of seizures and pain for their anticonvulsive, hypnotic and sedative properties. Some glycolipids isolated

Two novel inhibitors of GABA uptake, namely SKF 89976-A (N-[4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl]-nipecotic acid) and SKF 100330-A (N-[4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl]-guvacine) were tested for anticonvulsant effects in genetically seizure-prone gerbils. Both compounds proved able to block major (generalized tonic-clonic)

Two novel, specific inhibitors of GABA uptake, namely SKF 89976-A (N-[4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl]-nipecotic acid) and SKF 100330-A (N-[4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl]-guvacine) were tested for anticonvulsant effects in amygdaloid kindled female rats. The anticonvulsant effectiveness of the compounds was

N-(4,4-Diphenyl-3-butenyl) nipecotic acid (SKF(R)-89976A) and N-(4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl) guvacine (SKF 100330A) are potent inhibitors of the uptake of GABA and have anticonvulsant properties. In the present study, the effects of these compounds on several behavioral and biochemical measures were

By bioisosteric transformations and successive optimization of known GABA uptake inhibitors, several series of novel GABA uptake inhibitors have been prepared by different synthetic approaches. These compounds are derivatives of nipecotic acid and guvacine, substituted at the nitrogen of these amino

SK&F 89976A [N-(4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl)-nipecotic acid] and SK&F 100330A [N-(4,4-diphenyl-3-butenyl)-guvacine] represent a new series of potent, orally active inhibitors of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake. In vitro studies with synaptosome-rich (P2) fractions of rat brain indicated that these

The relative ability of 16 direct and indirect GABAmimetic drugs to elevate the threshold for electroconvulsions and pentetrazole seizures was studied in mice. The following drugs were tested: GABA and its pro drug cetyl GABA, the GABA agonists muscimol, THIP and progabide, the inhibitors of the

Since GABAergic dysfunction underlies a variety of neurological and psychiatric disorders, numerous strategies leading to the augmentation of GABAergic neurotransmission have been introduced. One of them is the inhibition of GABA reuptake from the synaptic cleft mediated by four plasma membrane GABA

On the basis of the SAR of a series of known gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake inhibitors, including 4 (SKF 89976), new tricyclic analogues have been prepared. These novel compounds are derivatives of nipecotic acid, guvacine, and homo-beta-proline, substituted at the nitrogen of these amino
