ROBUST PHOTO-REGULATION OF GABAA RECEPTORS BY ALLOSTERIC MODULATION WITH A PROPOFOL ANALOG

Photochemical switches represent a powerful method for improving pharmacological therapies and controlling cellular physiology. Here we report the photo-regulation of GABAA receptors (GABAARs) by a derivative of propofol (2,6-diisopropylphenol), a GABAAR allosteric modulator, that we have modified t...
