Nipecotic acid, S(+)-（Cat No.:I014527）, is a compound that acts as a selective inhibitor of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake. By inhibiting the reuptake of GABA, it increases the concentration of GABA in the synaptic cleft, enhancing its inhibitory effects on neuronal activity. Nipecotic acid, S(+)-, is primarily used as a research tool to study the role of GABAergic neurotransmission and explore its potential therapeutic applications in conditions where modulation of GABA levels is beneficial, such as epilepsy or anxiety disorders.
