Chemical structure of ADX-71441

ADX-71441 is a novel pharmacological compound that acts as a positive allosteric modulator of the GABA_B receptor. It has been investigated for its potential therapeutic effects in various neurological and psychiatric disorders.

Mechanism of Action[edit | edit source]

ADX-71441 enhances the activity of the GABA_B receptor, which is a metabotropic receptor for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. By modulating this receptor, ADX-71441 increases the inhibitory effects of GABA, leading to a reduction in neuronal excitability.

Potential Therapeutic Applications[edit | edit source]

Research has suggested that ADX-71441 may be beneficial in the treatment of several conditions, including:

The modulation of the GABA_B receptor by ADX-71441 could provide a novel approach to managing these conditions, particularly where traditional therapies have been ineffective.

Pharmacokinetics[edit | edit source]

The pharmacokinetic profile of ADX-71441 includes its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion characteristics. Studies have shown that it has a favorable bioavailability and a half-life that supports its use in clinical settings.

Safety and Tolerability[edit | edit source]

In preclinical studies, ADX-71441 has demonstrated a good safety profile with minimal adverse effects. However, further clinical trials are necessary to fully establish its safety and efficacy in humans.

Research and Development[edit | edit source]
