| Application: | Gabapentin has been used: • as the α2δ-ligand to examine whether the allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) sensitized thermal aversion assay might be useful as a screening method for the identification of presumptive analgesics • dissolved in uptake buffer which is used to measure the to measure ASP (trans-4-[4-(Dimethylamin • used as an analgesic adjuvant for intraperitoneal injections |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Anticonvulsant with unknown mechanism of action; crosses the blood brain barrier; increases GABA concentrations in the brain and reduces excitatory amino acid neurotransmission, perhaps through its effects on voltage-gated calcium channels; exhibits antinociceptive, anxiolytic, neuroprotective and anti-epileptic effects. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Gabapentin serves as a ligand for the α2δ subunit of L-type calcium channels. |
