Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Emapunil, also known as AC-5216 and XBD-173, is a novel mitochondrial benzodiazepine receptor ligand (MBR ligand). AC-5216 showed high affinity for MBRs prepared from rat whole brain (Ki 0.297 nm), rat glioma cells (IC50 3.04 nm) and human glioma cells (IC50 2.73 nm), but only negligible affinity for the other main receptors including central benzodiazepine receptors. AC-5216 produced anti-anxiety effects in the Vogel-type conflict test in rats, and in the light/dark box and social interaction tests in mice at 0.1-3, 0.003-0.01 and 0.01-0.3 mg kg(-1), p.o., respectively.
