Product Data
Biological target:
Saclofen is a GABAB receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 7.8 μM.
In vitro activity:
To be determined
In vivo activity:
Activation of GABAB receptor in the spinal cord may suppress the TLR4/Myd88/NF-κB signaling pathway and alleviate diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP). In a rat model of DNP, intrathecal injection of saclofen decreased paw withdrawal threshold and paw withdrawal thermal latency in DNP rats.
