TCS 1105

TCS1105 is a benzodiazepine ligand with agonist for α2-subunit containing GABAA receptors and antagonist for α1-subunit containing GABAA receptors. TCS1105 reduces anxiety-like behavior in mice. TCS1105 enhances offensive behavior and social dominance. TCS1105 blocks Sema3A induced AGC (axonal growth cones) collapse in a concentration-dependent fashion[1][2].
