α1β2 gabaa receptor

Glabridin (KB-289522) may serve as an anti-inflammatory agent in diabetes-related vascular dysfunction, through regulating the synthesis and activity of iNOS under high-glucose levels; may possess a therapeutic effect on metabolic disorders( such as diabetes and hyperglycemia), by modulating glucose metabolism through AMPK in skeletal muscle cells. Glabridin may have potential as a chemopreventive agent against liver Y metastasis, by inhibiting the invasion of human HCC cells.

6-Methylflavone is an activator of α1β2γ2L and α1β2 GABAA receptors.

GABAA receptor modulator-9 is a positive allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor, specifically targeting the α1β2γ2 subtype and capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier. It exhibits excellent activity at α1β2γ2 (EC50: 0.9 μM in oocytes and 0.2 μM in CHO cells) and also shows activity at α1β2, α3β2γ2, and α1β3γ2 (with EC50 values of 1.3, 3.4, and 1.1 μM, respectively). GABAA receptor modulator-9 significantly inhibits seizure progression and reduces mortality in mice. It is applicable in studies of status epilepticus (SE).
