Product Page - Scientific background :
Chlormethiazole hydrochloride, a thiazole derivative, is a sedative, hypnotic and anxiolytic compound that has been used for the treatment of alcohol-withdrawal symptoms, status epilepticus and pre-eclampsia.Chlormethiazole acts as a positive modulator of GABA(A) and glycine receptors and holds structural similarity to the β-subunit-selective compound loreclezole. In several studies, the compound was also shown to have neuroprotective properties in models of ischaemia1,2,3.GABA(A) receptors are members of the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels and mediate GABA action, a major inhibitory neurotransmitter, throughout the central nervous system. GABA(A) receptors are considered to be a major target of antiseizure drugs4.

Synthetic
Molecular formula :
C6H9Cl2NS.
Effective Concentration :
0.01-1 mM.
Activity :
Chlormethiazole both directly activates GABAA receptors (at 0.3 - 1 mM), and potentiates GABA-induced activation at various GABAA receptor subtypes (with EC50 of 20 - 160 µM)1. It was also shown to potentiate glycine-induced currents in both bovine chromaffin cells and murine spinal neurons (at 100 µM)2.
