Homotaurine (also known as tramiprosate (INN), 3-amino-1-propanesulfonic acid, or 3-APS) is a natural amino acid found in seaweed.[2] It is analogous to taurine, but with an extra carbon in its chain. It has GABAergic activity, apparently by mimicking GABA, which it resembles.[3]

Homotaurine was investigated in a Phase III clinical trial as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease that did not show efficacy.[4] A study in cognitive impairment done in 2018 did show positive benefits.[5]

Biochemical properties

In preclinical studies it had been found to bind to soluble amyloid beta and inhibit the formation of neurotoxic aggregates.[4][6] Homotaurine has also shown anticonvulsant activities, reduction in skeletal muscle tonus, and hypothermic activity.[7]

Homotaurine has been reported as a GABA antagonist,[3] as well as a GABA agonist.[7][8] In vitro studies have found that homotaurine is a GABAA partial agonist[9] as well as a GABAB receptor partial agonist with low efficacy, becoming an antagonist and displacing the full agonists GABA and baclofen at this receptor.[10] In a study in rats, homotaurine reversed the catatonia induced by baclofen (the prototypical GABAB agonist),[11] and was able to produce analgesia via the GABAB receptor, an effect that was abolished when CGP-35348, a GABAB receptor antagonist was applied.[12][13]

One study in rats showed that homotaurine suppressed ethanol-stimulated dopamine release, as well as ethanol intake and preference in rats in a way similar to the N-acetyl derivative of homotaurine, acamprosate.[14] Acamprosate was approved by the FDA in 2004 to treat alcohol dependence.[3]
