| Targets |
GBR 12783 dihydrochloride targets the dopamine transporter (DAT). By inhibiting DAT, it blocks the reuptake of dopamine from the synaptic cleft, leading to increased extracellular dopamine levels. This mechanism makes it a valuable tool for studying the role of dopamine in various physiological and pathological processes.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cell-free systems, GBR 12783 dihydrochloride inhibits [³H]dopamine uptake with high potency. It has an IC50 of 1.8 nM in rat striatal synaptosomes and 1.2 nM in mouse striatal synaptosomes. These assays confirm its potent and selective inhibition of the dopamine transporter. Cellular uptake assays demonstrate that GBR 12783 dihydrochloride potently inhibits dopamine uptake in neuronal cells. The compound blocks DAT-mediated dopamine transport, leading to increased extracellular dopamine levels. Its high potency and selectivity make it a useful tool for studying dopaminergic function in cell culture models.

| ln Vivo |
GBR 12783 (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 100 minutes; male Sprague-Dawley rats) therapy increases hippocampus ACh release, enhances dopamine transmission only at synapses instantly active, and enhances memory performance in a passive avoidance task[1].
In vivo, GBR 12783 dihydrochloride is used to study the behavioral and neurochemical effects of increased dopaminergic signaling. By inhibiting dopamine reuptake, it enhances dopaminergic transmission. It is used in animal models to investigate the role of dopamine in reward, locomotion, and neuropsychiatric disorders. |
| Enzyme Assay |
Dopamine uptake inhibition assays for GBR 12783 dihydrochloride are performed using synaptosomal preparations from rat or mouse striatum. [³H]Dopamine is used as the substrate, and uptake is measured in the presence of varying concentrations of the compound. IC50 values are determined from inhibition curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for GBR 12783 dihydrochloride are conducted using neuronal cell cultures or cells expressing the dopamine transporter. Cells are pre-incubated with the compound at various concentrations, then [³H]dopamine is added. Uptake is terminated after a defined period, and accumulated radioactivity is measured. IC50 values are calculated from concentration-response data.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male SD (Sprague-Dawley) rats (180-200 g)[1]
Doses: 10 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip) injection; for 100 minutes Experimental Results: For a moderate electric shock intensity (0.4 mA), improved retention performance, increased hippocampal acetylcholine release in vivo. In vivo studies using GBR 12783 dihydrochloride are conducted in animal models, such as rodents. The compound is administered systemically, and its effects on behavior, such as locomotor activity, and neurochemistry, such as dopamine levels, are assessed. These studies help to elucidate the role of DAT in vivo. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of GBR 12783 dihydrochloride are not extensively reported in the available literature. As a potent DAT inhibitor, it is expected to be capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier. Its lipophilic nature likely contributes to its central nervous system activity.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Preclinical toxicity data for GBR 12783 dihydrochloride are limited. It is used in research settings at concentrations that inhibit dopamine uptake. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed when handling the compound.
