GBR 12783 dihydrochloride 

GBR 12783 dihydrochloride is a specific, potent and selective dopamine uptake inhibitor that inhibits the [³H]dopamine uptake by rat and mice striatal synaptosomes with IC₅₀s of 1.8 nM and 1.2 nM, respectively. GBR 12783 dihydrochloride can improve memory performance and increase hippocampal acetylcholine release in rats^[1][2].

GBR 12783 (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; for 100 minutes; male Sprague-Dawley rats) treatment reinforces specifically dopamine transmission only at synapses instantaneously active, increases hippocampal ACh release and improves memory performance in a passive avoidance task^[1].
