TPMPA is a GABAA-ρ1 (ρ1 GABAC) receptor antagonist that is 8-fold selective for GABAA-ρ1 over GABAA-ρ2 (ρ2 GABAC) receptors expressed in X. laevis oocytes (Kbs = 2 and 16 μM, respectively). In rat hippocampal slices, TPMPA blocks the inhibitory effect of the GABAB agonist 3-APMPA on excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) with an EC50 value of 490 μM. TPMPA (100 μM) increases light sensitivity and the maximal response of rat retinal ganglion cells without altering their dynamic range. In sleeping rats, TPMPA (50 μg, i.c.v.) increases waking from 45 to 62% compared to a vehicle control and decreases...
