| Targets |
AUT1 targets voltage-gated potassium channels of the Kv3 family, specifically Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a. It is a positive allosteric modulator that enhances channel activity. AUT1 increases whole currents mediated by human Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels, with a concomitant leftward shift in the voltage-dependence of activation. It has a less potent effect on hKv3.3 currents. The EC₅₀ values are 4.7 and 4.9 µM for Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a, respectively.

| ln Vitro |
In human recombinants, AUT1 (1.5, 12.5, and 25 μM) modifies Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels with pEC50 values of 5.33 and 5.31 μM, respectively [1]. In a concentration-dependent manner, AUT1 increases total current mediated by human Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels [1]. Human Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channel voltage dependency of activation and inactivation is changed by AUT1 (10 and 30 μM) [1]. EGFP-positive cortical interneurons fire rapidly, and AUT1 prevents this from happening at 1 and 10 μM [1].
In vitro, AUT1 increases the current mediated by human recombinant Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels. It has pEC₅₀ values of 5.33 and 5.31 µM for Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels, respectively. In a concentration-dependent manner, AUT1 increases total current mediated by human Kv3.1b and Kv3.2a channels.

| ln Vivo |
Specific in vivo data for AUT1 are not extensively detailed in the available literature. However, AUT1 increases tetraethylammonium-induced decreases in the firing frequency and amplitude of action potentials in mouse somatosensory cortex slices when used at concentrations of 1 and 10 µM. By enhancing Kv3 channel activity, it promotes rapid neuronal repolarization and thereby regulates neuronal firing and synaptic transmission.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The activity of AUT1 can be assessed using electrophysiological techniques, specifically patch-clamp electrophysiology. Cells expressing human Kv3.1b or Kv3.2a channels are treated with varying concentrations of AUT1. The whole-cell currents are recorded, and the voltage-dependence of activation and inactivation is analyzed. The EC₅₀ for modulation of channel activity is determined from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
To evaluate the cellular effects of AUT1, neurons or cells expressing Kv3 channels are treated with the compound. The effects on action potential firing frequency and amplitude are measured using electrophysiological recordings. The modulation of channel activity and neuronal excitability is assessed. The compound's effects on synaptic transmission can also be evaluated in brain slice preparations.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with AUT1 would typically involve administration to animal models via oral or parenteral routes. The compound's effects on neuronal excitability, seizure susceptibility, or other neurological functions could be assessed. However, detailed in vivo protocols for AUT1 are not extensively documented in the available literature.

| Additional Infomation |
AUT1 is a positive modulator of Kv3.1 and Kv3.2 potassium channels. It increases whole currents mediated by these channels and shifts the voltage-dependence of activation. AUT1 is used as a research tool to study the role of Kv3 channels in neuronal excitability, rapid repolarization, and synaptic transmission. It is not a clinically approved drug.
