چکیده
Drugs used to treat various disorders target GABA A receptors. To develop alpha subunit selective compounds, we synthesized 5-(4-piperidyl)-3-isoxazolol (4-PIOL) derivatives. The 3-isoxazolol moiety was substituted by 1,3,5-oxadiazol-2-one, 1,3,5-oxadiazol-2-thione, and substituted 1,2,4-triazol-3-ol heterocycles with modifications to the basic piperidine substituent as well as substituents without basic nitrogen. Compounds were screened by [(3)H]muscimol binding and in patch-clamp experiments with heterologously expressed GABA A alpha ibeta 3gamma 2 receptors (i = 1-6). The effects of 5-aminomethyl-3 H-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-one 5d were comparable to GABA for all alpha subunit isoforms. 5-piperidin-4-yl-3 H-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-one 5a and 5-piperidin-4-yl-3 H-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-thione 6a were weak agonists at alpha 2-, alpha 3-, and alpha 5-containing receptors. When coapplied with GABA, they were antagonistic in alpha 2-, alpha 4-, and alpha 6-containing receptors and potentiated alpha 3-containing receptors. 6a protected GABA binding site cysteine-substitution mutants alpha 1F64C and alpha 1S68C from reacting with methanethiosulfonate-ethylsulfonate. 6a specifically covalently modified the alpha 1R66C thiol, in the GABA binding site, through its oxadiazolethione sulfur. These results demonstrate the feasibility of synthesizing alpha subtype selective GABA mimetic drugs.

متن کاملGABAA Receptor Subunits in Rat Testis and Sperm
Background γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is considered to be the predominant inhibitory neurotransmitter in mammalian central nervous systems (CNS). There are two major classes of GABA receptors: GABAARs and GABABRs. The GABAA receptor is derived from various subunits such as alpha1-alpha 6, beta1-beta 3, gamma1-gamma 4, delta, epsilon, pi, and rho1-3. Intensive research has been performed to und...

Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is the one of the most common anxiety disorders. Despite its high prevalence, the disorder is still considerably undiagnosed and untreated. The disease places a massive burden on patient’s lives, affecting not only their social interactions but also their educational and professional activities, thereby constituting a severe disability. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) s...
