Biological Activity

(+)-Bicuculline (1-100μM) dose-dependently inhibits the Cl- conductance generated by 40 μM GABA. (+)-Bicuculline inhibits GABA(A) α2/β1/γ2 currents activated by γ-Aminobutyric acid, (+)-Bicuculline concentration from 10 nM to 2 μM progressively decreased the amplitude of GABA-activated ion currents. Furthermore, (+)-bicuculine also blocks small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels.

Cell Experiment
Cell lines Primary cortical neurons from rat E18 embryos
Preparation method Bicuculline treatment could potentiate synaptic NMDAR signaling in the primary cortical neurons. Bicuculline led to a rapid decrease in STEP61 expression and a concomitant increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of STEP substrates including GluN2B, Pyk2, and ERK1/2.

β-CCB is a ligand for benzodiazepine receptor, which inhibits the binding of [3H]flunitrazepam and ethyl (3-[3H]carboline-3-carboxylate to benzodiazepine receptors, with Ki of 3-4 nM.

TPMPA 

TPMPA, a hybrid of isoguvacine and 3-APMPA, is the first selective antagonist for a GABAC receptor (KB = 2.1 μM), but not to interact with GABAA (KB = 320 μM) or GABAB receptors (EC50 = 500 μM).

CI-966 

CI-966 is a potent, selective, orally active and brain-penetrant inhibitor of the GABA transporter GAT-1, with IC50s of 0.26 μM and 1.2 μM for hGAT-1, rGAT-1, respectively.
