Esters of valerenic acid as potential prodrugs.

Eur. J. Pharmacol. 735 , 123-31, (2014)

Valerenic acid (VA) is a β2/3 subunit-specific modulator of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A (GABAA) receptors inducing anxiolysis. Here we analyze if VA-esters can serve as prodrugs and if different ester structures have different in vitro/in vivo effects. ...
