Product Data
Biological target:
Progabide has agonistic activity for both the GABAA and GABAB receptors.
In vitro activity:
Progabide and other antiepileptic drugs were examined for their effects on corticosterone-induced gene transcription chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity in mouse fibroblast cells. Progabide, alongside felbamate and loreclezole, inhibited glucocorticoid receptor-mediated transcription, potentially impacting antiepileptic drug efficacy and immune system function. Reference: Pharmacol Rep. 2007 Sep-Oct;59(5):531-7. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18048953/
In vivo activity:
This study investigated the effects of progabide on motor seizures induced by pentylenetetrazol in rats. The response to progabide varied with age: in adult rats, there was a tendency to suppress generalized tonic-clonic seizures, while in rat pups aged 7 to 18 days, progabide specifically suppressed the tonic phase of seizures. At 25 days of age, the only effect observed was an increase in the latency of major seizures at the highest progabide dose.
