(+) -Nipecotic acid
(+) -Nipecotic acid ((+) -β-Homoproline) is a GABA transport inhibitor with potential antidepressant and anxiolytic activities. (+) -Nipecotic acid can increase the concentration of GABA in the synaptic cleft, thereby enhancing inhibitory neurotransmission. The research on (+) -Nipecotic acid provides a possible direction for the development of new inhibitory compounds for psychiatric diseases[1].
