muscimol and Nervous System Disorders

muscimol has been researched along with Nervous System Disorders in 2 studies

Muscimol: A neurotoxic isoxazole isolated from species of AMANITA. It is obtained by decarboxylation of IBOTENIC ACID. Muscimol is a potent agonist of GABA-A RECEPTORS and is used mainly as an experimental tool in animal and tissue studies.
muscimol : A member of the class of isoxazoles that is 1,2-oxazol-3(2H)-one substituted by an aminomethyl group at position 5. It has been isolated from mushrooms of the genus Amanita.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effects of N-(2,6-dimethyl-phenyl)-2-(2-oxo-1-pyrrolidinyl)acetamide (DM-9384), a cyclic derivative of GABA, were investigated and compared with those of aniracetam in an animal model of amnesia, using a passive avoidance task with animals that have GABAergic neuronal dysfunctions."3.68Effects of DM-9384 in a model of amnesia based on animals with GABAergic neuronal dysfunctions. ( Itoh, J; Kameyama, T; Nabeshima, T; Noda, Y; Tohyama, K, 1990)
"The onset of tremors and convulsions, which occur as pressure is increased, were used as endpoints for assessing the onset and severity of the HPNS."1.27Interactions of gamma-aminobutyric acid and noradrenaline in the high pressure neurological syndrome.
