S(+)-2,4-Diaminobutyric acid is at least 20 times more potent than the R(-) stereoisomer as an inhibitor of the sodium-dependent uptake of 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in rat brain slices. Both isomers, however, are equipotent as inhibitors of sodium-independent binding of GABA to membranes from rat brain. The latter finding may be relevant to the reported neurotoxicity in rats of both isomers of 2,4-diaminobutyric acid after intracisternal injection.
作为大鼠脑切片中4-氨基丁酸(GABA)钠依赖性摄取的抑制剂,S(+)-2,4-二氨基丁酸的效力至少是R(-)立体异构体的20倍。然而,两种异构体作为GABA与大鼠脑膜钠非依赖性结合的抑制剂时效力相当。后一发现可能与脑池内注射2,4-二氨基丁酸两种异构体后在大鼠中报道的神经毒性有关。
