Pregabalin exhibits robust activity in preclinical assays indicative of potential antiepileptic, anxiolytic, and antihyperalgesic clinical efficacy. It binds with high affinity to the alpha(2)-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels and is a substrate of the system L neutral amino acid transporter. A series of pregabalin analogues were prepared and evaluated for their alpha(2)-delta binding affinity as demonstrated by their ability to inhibit binding of [(3)H]gabapentin to pig brain membranes and for their potency to inhibit the uptake of [(3)H]leucine into CHO cells, a measure of their ability to compete with the endogenous substrate at the system L transporter. Compounds were also assessed in vivo for their ability to promote anxiolytic, analgesic, and anticonvulsant actions. These studies suggest that distinct structure activity relationships exist for alpha(2)-delta binding and system L transport inhibition. However, both interactions appear to play an important role in the in vivo profile of these compounds.

A marine bacterium, Vibrio MB22, has been studied to determine the pattern of feedback regulation of the first enzyme unique to the biosynthesis of the aromatic amino acids, 3-deoxy-d-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate (DAHP) synthetase. The crude extract was used to study response of the enzyme to various salts as well as possible feedback inhibitors. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid was found to be inhibitory to enzyme activity, and only CoCl(2), of the salts tested, allowed full recovery as well as apparent stimulation of the DAHP synthetase activity. The DAHP synthetase activity was inhibited solely by the aromatic amino acids, tyrosine, tryptophan, and phenylalanine, of the possible effectors tested. Further work demonstrated the existence of three isozymes of DAHP synthetase, each primarily inhibited by one of the aromatic amino acids.
Our goal was to attempt to establish neuropharmacological tinnitus control (i.e., relief) with medication directed to restoration of a deficiency in the gamma-aminobutyric acid-benzodiazepine-chloride receptor in tinnitus patients with a diagnosis of a predominantly central type tinnitus. Thirty tinnitus patients completed a medical audiological tinnitus patient protocol and brain magnetic resonance imaging and single-photon emission computed tomography of brain. Treatment with GABAergic and benzodiazepine medication continued for 4-6 weeks. A maintenance dose was continued when tinnitus control was positive. Intake and outcome questionnaires were completed. Of 30 patients, 21 completed the trial (70%). Tinnitus control lasting from 4-6 weeks to 3 years was reported by 19 of the 21 (90%). The trial was not completed by 9 of the 30 (30%). No patient experienced an increase in tinnitus intensity or annoyance. Sequential brain single-photon emission computed tomography in 10 patients revealed objective evidence of increased brain perfusion. Patients with a predominantly central type tinnitus experience significant tinnitus control with medication directed to the gamma-aminobutyric acid-benzodiazepine-chloride receptor.
