(-)-BICUCULLINE METHBROMIDE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

1(S),9(R)-(-)-Bicuculline methbromide has been used:

  • as a γ-aminobutyric acid (GABAA) receptor A antagonist: in cortical neuron culture
  • in artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) formature dentate granule neurons
  • in hypothalamic explant cultures

Biochem/physiol Actions

1(S),9(R)-(?)-Bicuculline methbromide is a GABAA receptor antagonist, which blocks Ca2+-activated potassium (SK) channels. It is the water-soluble derivative of (+)-bicuculline.

in vivo

Bicuculline methobromide (subcutaneous injection, 1.25-3 mg/kg) can cause clonus-tonic convulsions in a dose-dependent manner in mice and these convulsions are enhanced by injection of the μ-opioid agonist morphine[1].
Bicuculline methobromide (subcutaneous injection, 1.5-3.2 mg/kg) induces male Swiss S mice generalized seizures with a CD50 (convulsant dose) of 2.2 mg/kg for clonus and CD50 of 2.4 mg/kg for tonus. Seizures induced by Bicuculline at the dose of 3.2 mg/kg can be blocked by pretreatment (i.p.) with the NMDA antagonists MK-801, CPP and CGS 19755[2].
