Use | VU0240551 is an inhibitor of the neuronal K-Cl cotransporter, KCC2 (IC50 = 560 nM for K+ uptake assay in KCC2-overexpressing cells). VU0240551 exhibits selectivity over the Na-K-2Cl cotransporter, NKCCl. It also inhibits hERG and L-type Ca2+ channels. |
In vitro study | VU 0240551 reduces the P cell response to GABA in a concentration-dependent manner with 75 and 100 μM treatments causing a significant reduction in GABA-elicited hyperpolarization while 25 μM had no significant effect. |
In vivo study | VU 0240551 (10 μM) significantly blocks the chloride influx in cells from Eu rats but did not affect cells from SL rats. |

biological activity | VU 0240551 is a potent inhibitor of the neuronal K-Cl cotransporter KCC2 (IC50=560 nM), selectivity compared to nkcc1. VU 0240551 also inhibits hERG and L-type Ca2 channels. VU 0240551 attenuated the GABA-induced hyperpolarization of P cells, caused a positive shift in the GABA reversal potential of P cells, and enhanced the synaptic transmission of P cells. |
