Description:

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

Scopolamine HBr acts as antimuscarinics like atropine, but may have more central nervous system effects. It is a non-selective muscarinic antagonist. Presently, scopolamine HBr is a widely used clinically to treat motion sickness.

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.
