Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Fumazinil (Ro 151788 analogue) is a benzodiazepinesite ligand that acts predominantly as an antagonist or partial inverse agonist at the benzodiazepine binding site of GABAA receptors. By displacing benzodiazepine agonists from their allosteric site, it reduces their potentiation of GABAmediated chloride currents and normalizes inhibitory tone.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in GABAA receptor pharmacology, benzodiazepinebinding studies, receptoroccupancy assays, and research on anxiolytic/hypnotic reversal.
Side Effects and Risks
May precipitate withdrawal, anxiety, agitation, seizures (in heavily sedated or dependent subjects) and autonomic activation. Handle with CNSactive receptorligand precautions.
Only GMP materials will be supplied, logistics all according to GDP.
