S4961 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (TMCA) is one of the constituents of Polygalae Radix and may exert anti-seizure activity by acting at the GABAA/BZ receptor complex.
E4920New Baclofen hydrochloride Baclofen hydrochloride is an agonist of the GABAB receptor that mimics the action of GABA, leading to slow presynaptic inhibition via the GABAB receptor. It improves the function of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and enhances cell survival in both in vitro and in vivo models of Huntington's disease (HD).
S3663 Afloqualone Afloqualone (AFQ, HQ-495) is a quinazolinone family GABAergic drug with muscle-relaxant and sedative effects, showing the agonist activity at the β subtype of the GABAa receptor.

S5596 (1S)-(-)-α-Pinene α-Pinene is found in the oils of many species of many coniferous trees, notably the pine and has insecticidal activity. (1S)-(-)-α-Pinene is a monoterpene and shows sleep enhancing property through a direct binding to GABAA-benzodiazepine (BZD) receptors by acting as a partial modulator at the BZD binding site.
E0101 AZD6280 AZD6280 is a selective GABAA (α2/3) receptor modulator, used for treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.
S0164 AZD7325 AZD7325 is a potent and orally active partial selective Positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of GABAAα2 and Aα3 receptor with Ki=0.3 and 1.3 nM, respectively, and has less antagonistic efficacy at the Aα1 and Aα5 receptor subtypes.
S9409 Kavain Kavain ((+)-Kavain), the main kavalactone found mostly in the roots of the kava plant, has anticonvulsive properties, attenuating vascular smooth muscle contraction through interactions with voltage-dependent Na+ and Ca2+ channels. Kavain positively modulated γ-Aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor.
S3977 (-)-Borneol (-)-Borneol (L-Borneol), one of enantiomers of borneol, has a camphoraceous and evident woody odor. (-)-Borneol has a highly efficacious positive modulating action at GABA receptor with an EC50 of 237 μM.
S6755 NS 11394 NS11394 is a subtype-selective positive allosteric modulator at GABAA receptors, with selectivity for the α3 and α5 subtypes.
E0960 RO5186582 RO5186582 (Basmisanil, RG1662) is a highly selective GABAAα5 negative allosteric modulator.
E4920New Baclofen hydrochloride Baclofen hydrochloride is an agonist of the GABAB receptor that mimics the action of GABA, leading to slow presynaptic inhibition via the GABAB receptor. It improves the function of the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and enhances cell survival in both in vitro and in vivo models of Huntington's disease (HD).
