Baclofen, gamma-amino-beta-hydroxybutyric acid (GABOB), calcium hopantenate (HOPA) and citicoline, which are clinically used for improving cerebral insufficiency, were tested for their effects on gastric acid secretion in the perfused stomach of urethane-anesthetized rats. These drugs were administered intravenously or subcutaneously.

Healthy male volunteers injected subcutaneously with 200 mg L-GABOB showed no significant changes in plasma GH, prolactin and cortisol levels. On the other hand, an intrathecal injection of 300 mg D, L-GABOB to cerebrovascular patients caused significant increases in plasma

Designing potent and subtype-selective ligands with therapeutic value requires knowledge about how endogenous ligands interact with their binding site. 4-Amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (GABOB) is an endogenous ligand found in the central nervous system in mammals. It is a metabolic product of

Rh(2)(4S-MEOX)(4) and ethereal solvent are the best catalytic system for the enantioselective intramolecular C-H insertion of N-(2-benzyloxyethyl)-N-(tert-butyl)diazoacetamide 2. The highest enantiomeric excess obtained was 91%. A new route for the asymmetric synthesis of gamma-amino-beta-hydroxybutyric acid (GABOB) has been developed.
