Scientific background Cyclothiazide (CTZ) is one of the most potent benzothiadiazides, a class of positive allosteric modulators of non-NMDA-type glutamate receptors, that inhibit receptor desensitization with a marked selectivity for the flip splice variants of AMPA receptors. Specifically, CTZ is known to produce a fast inhibition of AMPA receptor desensitization and a much slower potentiation of the AMPA current. By using patch-clamp techniques, the effects of CTZ were studied in HEK 293 cells stably transfected with the rat flip GluR1 subunit. The AMPA currents were greatly potentiated by CTZ in a dose-dependent manner. For instance, pretreatment of the cells with 100 μM CTZ increased the peak AMPA current 90-fold (EC50 = 28 μM), the current at the end of AMPA application 636-fold (EC50 = 46 μM), and the current integrals 730-fold (EC50 = 41 μM)1.
