What is Guvacine?
The Uses of Guvacine
Guvacine Hydrochloride is a GABA uptake inhibitor (hGABA T-1, rGABA T-2, hGABA T-3 and hBGT-1) (1,2,3). Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain (4). Guvacine Hydrochloride may be useful for treating neuropsychiatric disorders.
Definition
ChEBI: A alpha,beta-unsaturated monocarboxylic acid that is nicotinic acid which has been hydrogenated at the 1-2 and 5-6 positions of the pyridine ring.
Biological Activity
Specific GABA uptake inhibitor. IC 50 values are 14, 58, 119 and 1870 mM for hGAT-1, rGAT-2, hGAT-3 and hBGT-1 respectively.
