Biological Activity
GiGA1 is a selective G-protein-independent activator of GIRK1/2 channels targets the alcohol pocket and specifically activates GIRK1/GIRK2 with EC50 of 31 uM.
GiGA1 exhibits high specificity for activating GIRK1/GIRK2 channels, GiGA1 activaiton of GIRK1/GIRK2 channels, does saturate at ~100 μM.
GiGA1 exhibits little to no activity against GIRK2/GIRK3, GIRK1/GIRK3, and GIRK1/GIRK4 channels expressed in HEK293T cells.
GiGA1 induces GIRK currents in hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, which express mostly GIRK1/GIRK2 heterotetramers.
GiGA1 (20, 40, or 60 mg/ kg) exhibited antiseizure properties in an in vivo epilepsy model.
