Bicuculline, IUPAC name (R)-6-((S)-6-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g]isoquinolin-5-yl)isobenzofuro[4,5-d][1,3]dioxol-8(6H)-one, is an alkaloid natural product that is a small-molecule chemical inhibitor of gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAAR)[3], IC50 = 3 μM for inhibitory activity.
Its blockade of GABAAR activity leads to significant promotion of embryonic stem (ES) and neural stem (NSC) cell proliferation and cell-cycle progression.[3]
Its in vivo clinical administration to humans is contraindicated because it significantly increases the occurrence on non-familial cases of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and childhood absence epilepsy because of its blockade of endogenous GABAergic inhibitory central nervous signaling[1] and it is believed to significantly increase the occurrence of central nervous cancer by its promotion of neural stem cell and neural progenitor cell (NPC) self-renewal.[2]
