DL-TBOA ammonium is a selective inhibitor of excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs), demonstrating IC50 values of 70 μM, 6 μM, and 6 μM for EAAT1, EAAT2, and EAAT3, respectively. This compound effectively inhibits the uptake of [14C]glutamate in COS-1 cells expressing human EAAT1 and EAAT2, with Ki values of 42 μM and 5.7 μM. Additionally, DL-TBOA ammonium competitively inhibits EAAT4 and EAAT5, featuring Ki values of 4.4 μM and 3.2 μM, respectively. Its distinct mechanism renders it a valuable tool for studies on excitatory neurotransmission and the role of glutamate transporters in neurological research.
