Description

4-(Aminomethyl)-2,6-Difluorophenol is a drug that has been shown to improve cognition in animal models. It is an allosteric modulator of the GABA receptor and has been shown to have a similar pharmacological profile to the benzodiazepine diazepam. This drug has not been tested in humans, but it has demonstrated efficacy in animal models of anxiety and depression. 4-(Aminomethyl)-2,6-Difluorophenol also binds to the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor and increases the concentration of GABA in the brain by inhibiting GABA transaminase and increasing its own binding affinity for this receptor. The drug improves cognition by acting on neurons in the colliculus, which are involved in memory. The exact mechanism of action is unknown, but it may be due to its ability to act as an allosteric modulator of ion channels or receptors that are
