(±)-4-aminohex-5-enoic acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

rac-Vigabatrin a novel antiepileptic drug. Antidepressant; antipsychotic; anxiolytic.

Definition

ChEBI: Vigabatrin is a gamma-amino acid having a gamma-vinyl GABA structure. It is an irreversible inhibitor of gamma-aminobutyric 664 acid transaminase It has a role as an anticonvulsant and an EC 2.6.1.19 (4-aminobutyrate--2-oxoglutarate transaminase) inhibitor.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Irreversible GABA transaminase inhibitor. Increases intracellular concentration of GABA in nerve endings; possesses antiepileptic activity.

in vivo

A significant increase in seizure threshold is observed following systemic (i.p.) administration of high (600 or 1200 mg/kg) doses of Vigabatrin. Bilateral microinjection of Vigabatrin (10 μg) into either the anterior or posterior substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) also increased seizure threshold, but less markedly than systemic treatment. Focal delivery into the subthalamic nucleus (STN) increased seizure threshold more markedly than either intranigral or systemic administration of Vigabatrin[1].
