Application

SB 205384 was used to study GABA-gated currents in rat locus coeruleus neurons.6

Biochem/physiol Actions

SB 205384 is a selective and positive allosteric modulator of non-benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptor.3 It affects the extrasynaptic GABAA receptors in rat cortical neurons4 and enhances the GABAergic transmission onto pro-opiomelanocortin neurons in mice.5
GABAA receptor modulator selective for the α3β2γ2 subunit combination.

Adaptive changes in hypothalamic neural circuitry occur in response to alterations in nutritional status. This plasticity at hypothalamic synapses contributes to the control of food intake and body weight. Here we show that genetic ablation of leptin receptor gene expression

GABA-A receptors are involved in the control of aggressive behaviour. Various studies suggest a role for a1-containing GABA-A receptors in modulating aggression. However, the possible involvement of a3 subunit of GABA-A receptors has not been examined. In this study, we

1. SB-205384, and its (+) enantiomer (+)-SB-205384 were tested for their modulatory effects on human GABA(A) receptor subunit combinations expressed in Xenopus oocytes by electrophysiological methods. 2. The slowing of the decay rate induced by SB-205384 on native GABA-activated currents

Many drugs used to treat anxiety are positive modulators of GABAA receptors, which mediate fast inhibitory neurotransmission. The GABAA receptors can be assembled from a combination of at least 16 different subunits. The receptor's subunit composition determines its pharmacologic and
