excitatory amino acid transporter 2

EAAT2 activator 1 (3-[(2-Chloro-6-fluorobenzyl)thio]-6-pyridin-2-ylpyridazine) is a thiopyridazine derivative that has been found to increase EAAT2 protein levels in astrocytes.

LDN-212320 (OSU-0212320) is a glutamate transporter EAAT2 activator. It also enhances EAAT2 levels by > 6 fold at concentrations < 5 μM after 24 h.

GT 949 is a selective excitatory positive allosteric modulator of amino acid transporter-2 (EAAT2) with an EC50 of 0.26 nM.

(R)-AS-1 is a selective positive allosteric modulator of excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2), with an EC50 of 11 nM. At doses of 60 and 90 mg kg, (R)-AS-1 enhances spontaneous locomotor activity in mice. It demonstrates anticonvulsant properties in mouse seizure models induced by maximal electroshock (MES), pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), or electric current stimulation (32 or 44 mA), with ED50 values of 66.3, 36.3, 15.6, and 41.6 mg kg, respectively. This compound is applicable in neurological disease research.
