Description:

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

Scopolamine is an alkaloid from SOLANACEAE, especially DATURA and SCOPOLIA. Scopolamine and its quaternary derivatives act as antimuscarinics like ATROPINE, but may have more central nervous system effects. Among the many uses are as an anesthetic premedication, in URINARY INCONTINENCE, in MOTION SICKNESS, as an antispasmodic, and as a mydriatic and cycloplegic.

Product Data
Biological target:
Scopolamine competitively inhibits muscarinic receptors for acetylcholine and acts as a nonselective muscarinic antagonist, producing both peripheral antimuscarinic properties and central sedative, antiemetic, and amnestic effects.
In vitro activity:
Scopolamine has potential as a treatment against Pythophthora infestans, a pathogen of potato blight. Scopolamine inhibited the mycelial growth of P. infestans with an IC50 value of 4.25 g L-1. Transcriptome analysis suggested that scopolamine led to a downregulation of most P. infestans genes functioning in cell growth, cell metabolism, and pathogenicity. Reference: J Sci Food Agric. 2023 Oct;103(13):6416-6428. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37209269/
In vivo activity:
In a male Wistar rat model of Alzheimer’s disease, scopolamine administration may exacerbate or worsen certain Alzheimer’s disease-related biomarkers. After scopolamine administration, there was increased Aβ deposition in the hippocampus and an increase in GSK3βP9. There was also a state of oxidative stress in scopolamine-treated groups.
