Application
Dihydrokainic acid has been used as a glutamate transporter (GLT-1) inhibitor in the glutamate uptake assay of astrocytes and glial cells. It may be used as a GLT-1 inhibitor in Lateral habenula (LHb).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Dihydrokainic favors neuronal cell death. It modulates anxiety and depression behaviors.
Dihydrokainic acid is a selective GLT-1 glutamate transporter inhibitor; weak inhibitor of AMPA/kainate glutamic acid receptors at high concentrations.
Dihydrokainic acid is a selective inhibitor of the GLT-1 glutamate transporter. At higher concentrations, dihydrokainate is a weak inhibitor of AMPA/kainate glutamic acid receptors.

Glutamate transporter subtype 1 (GLT-1) activation is a promising - and understudied - approach for managing aspects of morphine tolerance caused by increased glutamatergic transmission. Identification of beta-lactam antibiotics as pharmaceuticals which activate GLT-1 transporters prompted us to hypothesize that
