Previous reports have suggested that the ethyl ester of (R)-nipecotic acid ethyl ester [(R)-NAEE] displays cholinomimetic properties in vivo. The present study was undertaken to characterize more fully this action by examining the effects of (R)-NAEE in a number of

THIP (4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo (5,4-c) pyridone-3-ol), a direct acting GABA receptor agonist, has been shown to have antinociceptive properties. To determine whether tolerance develops to the analgesic response, mice received multiple injections of THIP for up to 21 days after which analgesia

The GABA uptake inhibitor ethyl (R,S)-nipecotate produces a dose-dependent suppression of aggression in highly aggressive hamsters but not in minimally aggressive ones. This suppression occurs at doses below those producing peripheral cholinergic effects; at the highest dose used it persists

The changes of seizure susceptibility of transgenic mice overexpressing GABA transporter-1 (GAT-1) were studied to clarify the possible role of GABAergic transmission in epileptogenesis. Seizures were induced by intraperitoneal administration of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ), picrotoxin (PIC), or kainic acid (KA) respectively.
