The purpose of this study was to determine whether (a) an uptake system for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) exists in human dental pulp, (b) GABA can be released from nerves in this tissue, and (c) GABA(B) autoreceptors modulate release of this
Zolpidem is a widely prescribed sleep aid with relative selectivity for GABA(A) receptors containing alpha1-3 subunits. We examined the effects of zolpidem on the inhibitory currents mediated by GABA(A) receptors using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from DMV neurons in transverse brainstem
The first highly potent and selective PDE8 inhibitors are disclosed. The initial tetrahydroisoquinoline hit was transformed into a nipecotic amide series in order to address a reactive metabolite issue. Reduction of lipophilicity to address metabolic liabilities uncovered an interesting diastereomer-dependent

The creatine transporter (CRT) is a member of a large family of sodium-dependent neurotransmitter and amino acid transporters. The CRT is closely related to the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter, GAT-1, yet GABA is not an effective substrate for the CRT.
