No.: HY-U00315 CAS No.: 129186-29-4 Molecular Formula: C₁₇H₁₅BrN₄O₂ • Screening Libraries Molecular Weight: 387.23 Target: GABA Receptor Pathway: Membrane Transporter/Ion Channel; Neuronal Signaling Storage: Please store the product under the recommended conditions in the COA. BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY Description Gidazepam is an agonist of GABA receptor channels (GABA RCs). IC₅₀ & Target GABA receptor[1] In Vitro Gidazepam demonstrates considerably lower affinities to GABA RCs than phenazepam, 3-hydrozyphenazepam, and Br-nordiazepam. This is manifested in different values of the inhibition constant (Ki) of binding of a specific ligand of [1] benzodiazepine receptors, diazepam. For Gidazepam, the Ki value is 2,200±50 nM . In Vivo Mice are distributed into 10 groups of five animals each, treated orally with Gidazepam (GDZ, 1 mg/kg); ester 1 (175 mg/kg); ester 2 (20 mg/kg); esters 3 and 4 (200 mg/kg); mixtures of Gidazepam and esters 1-4. All esters of GABA with monoterpenes display antiseizure effects in 3 h after oral administration as evidenced by increasing of inducing clonic-tonic convulsions (DCTC) and tonic extension (DTE) values. Gidazepam (1 mg/kg) is found to protect against seizures with DCTC and DTE values of 250% and 215%, accordingly; whereas co-administration of Gidazepam and esters 5-7 is shown to increase anticonvulsant activity compared with each compound alone[1]. PROTOCOL Animal Mice[1] Administration [1] The outbreed male white mice (18-22 g) are used. Mice are distributed into 10 groups of five animals each, treated orally with Gidazepam 1 mg/kg (GDZ); GABA ester of menthol 175 mg/kg (1); GABA ester of thymol 20 mg/kg (2); GABA ester of carvacrol 200 mg/kg (3); GABA ester of guaiacol 200 mg/kg (4); mixture of Gidazepam and 1; mixture of Gidazepam and 2; mixture of Gidazepam and 3; mixture of Gidazepam and 4. Doses of esters 1-4 are calculated in equimolar amounts with respect to monoterpenes based on our preliminary investigation and from literature citations. The anticonvulsant activity of compounds 1-4 and Gidazepam as well as mixtures of Gidazepam with 1-4 is evaluated in model of acute generalized seizures; pharmacological effect of compounds is estimated in 3 h[1].
