Bicuculline ((+)-Bicuculline) is a light-sensitive competitive antagonist of GABAA receptors, originally identified in 1932 from plant alkaloid extracts, and isolated from Dicentra cucullaria, Adlumia fungosa, Fumariaceae, and various Corydalis species.

Description | Bicuculline ((+)-Bicuculline) is a light-sensitive competitive antagonist of GABAA receptors, originally identified in 1932 from plant alkaloid extracts, and isolated from Dicentra cucullaria, Adlumia fungosa, Fumariaceae, and various Corydalis species. |
Targets&IC50 | GABAA receptor:2 μM |
In vivo | (+)-Bicuculline, at concentrations of 1/3 μM, increased the EC50 of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by 1.6 times (41.0-67.0 μM) and by 3.6 times (36.1-129.0 μM), respectively. This compound also dose-dependently inhibited the Cl- conductance induced by GABA (40 μM) in the range of 1-100 μM. In addition, (+)-Bicuculline inhibited the agonistic effects of GABA (40 μM) on the α1β2γ2L receptor, functioning as an antagonist of the α1β2γ2L GABAA receptor. This action caused a parallel shift in the concentration-effect curve of GABA without affecting its maximum response. Furthermore, (+)-Bicuculline also exhibited inhibitory effects on Ca2+-activated potassium channels. |
