CLP 257 is a K+/Cl- cotransporter 2 (KCC2) activator. It induces chloride transport in NG108-cl cells that endogenously express low levels of KCC2 (EC50 = 616 nM). It is selective for KCC2 over GABAA receptors at 50 µM. CLP 257 (25 µM) increases the rate of chloride accumulation in spinal slices isolated from a rat model of peripheral nerve injury and BDNF control slices, which exhibit reduced levels of KCC2. In vivo, CLP 257 (100 mg/kg) increases mechanical and withdrawal thresholds in a rat model of peripheral nerve injury and reverses morphine-induced hyperalgesia in rats.
