(R)-4-Amino-3-hydroxybutyric acid, also known as (R)-GABOB, acts as a modulator of GABA receptors, specifically binding to both GABAA and GABAB receptors and blocking GABA reuptake in rat brain synaptosomes. Additionally, it serves as a GABAC receptor agonist, triggering currents in patch-clamp assays with Xenopus oocytes that express the human receptor. In vivo studies reveal its capability to suppress electrical discharges in the amygdala in cats undergoing N-amidinobenzamide-triggered seizures, indicating its potential therapeutic application in managing seizure disorders.
