Two Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs, Niflumic Acid and Diclofenac, Inhibit the Human Glutamate Transporter EAAT1 Through Different Mechanisms
We investigated the effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on substrate-induced currents of l-glutamate (l-Glu) transporter EAAT1 expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Niflumic acid (NFA) and diclofenac inhibited l-Glu-induced current through EAAT1 in a noncompetitive manner. NFA produced a...
