BTS 72664 is a broad-spectrum, non-sedating, orally effective anticonvulsant. Its anticonvulsant effect mainly arises from enhancing GABAA receptor (GABAA receptor)-mediated chloride channel currents, while it exerts weak blocking effects on Na+ channels (Ki = 350 μM) and NMDA receptors (NMDA receptor) (IC50 = 43 μM). BTS 72664 prevents the elevation of extracellular glutamate, glycine and serine concentrations in neurons, reduces cerebral infarct size, promotes functional recovery, prevents multiple types of epileptic seizures, and has low sedative potential. BTS 72664 can be used for the research of epilepsy, stroke and migraine.

Description

BTS 72664 is a broad-spectrum, non-sedating, orally effective anticonvulsant. Its anticonvulsant effect mainly arises from enhancing GABAA receptor (GABAA receptor)-mediated chloride channel currents, while it exerts weak blocking effects on Na+ channels (Ki = 350 μM) and NMDA receptors (NMDA receptor) (IC50 = 43 μM). BTS 72664 prevents the elevation of extracellular glutamate, glycine and serine concentrations in neurons, reduces cerebral infarct size, promotes functional recovery, prevents multiple types of epileptic seizures, and has low sedative potential. BTS 72664 can be used for the research of epilepsy, stroke and migraine[1].

In Vitro

BTS 72664 inhibits Veratridine (HY-N6691)-induced glutamate efflux from rat brain synaptosomes without altering basal efflux[1].
BTS 72664 (3-100 μM) weakly reduces NMDA-induced depolarization by ~20% in rat brain cortical wedges, with no significant activity at non-NMDA glutamate receptors[1].
BTS 72664 (0.3-300 μM) attenuates spontaneous epileptiform discharges in rat brain cortical wedges, with greater potency against Bicuculline (HY-N0219)-induced SEDs (IC50 94 μM for frequency) than Mg2+-removal-induced SEDs (IC50 189 μM for frequency)[1].
BTS 72664 (100 μM; 20-45 min) hyperpolarizes the resting membrane potential of rat hippocampal slice CA1 pyramidal neurons by a mean of 9.5 mV[1].
BTS 72664 (10-100 μM) attenuates NMDA-evoked currents in cultured Swiss mouse cortical neurons with an IC50 of 43 μM[1].
BTS 72664 (10-100 μM) potentiates GABA-evoked currents in cultured Swiss mouse cortical neurons via a benzodiazepine-independent, Picrotoxin (HY-101391)-sensitive GABAA channel mechanism, producing a 511% potentiation at 100 μM[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
