Product Page - Scientific background :
Gabazine (SR-95531) is a specific, competitive and potent antagonist of GABA(A) receptors. The compound also blocks glycine receptors but with lower affinity. SR-95531 acts as an allosteric inhibitor of GABA(A) receptor channel opening1,2 and blocks GABA-evoked currents with an IC50 of 0.44 µM1. When SR 95531 was administered intravenously it was shown to cause seizures in mice3.GABA(A) receptors are members of the Cys-loop superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels. They mediate the GABA action, a major inhibitory neurotransmitter, throughout the central nervous system (CNS) and play an important role in inhibiting cell excitation in the CNS. The GABA(A) receptor is considered to be a major target of anti-seizure drugs4,5.

Activity :
Gabazine is a competitive antagonist of the GABA(A) receptor, selectively inhibiting GABA-evoked currents (IC50 = 0.44 µM), but not currents evoked by pentobarbiton and etomidate1. It is also a low-affinity glycine receptor antagonist (KB = 191 µM)2.
