Homotaurine (CAS: 3687-18-1), also known as Tramiprosate, is a gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor agonist and a glycosaminoglycan mimetic used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Homotaurine is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan mimetic that was reported to bind soluble Aβ and inhibit the interaction of Aβ with endogenous glycosaminoglycans, thereby preventing β-sheet formation. Conversely, tramiprosate was also reported to promote tau polymerization into fibrillar aggregates. It is also an analog of GABA that can act as a partial agonist of GABAA receptors, as well as an antagonist at GABAB receptors.
