Naloxone Hydrocloride, MP Biomedicals™

Description

Naloxone Hydrocloride Off-white Crystalline Powder

• The role of naloxone (1μM) and other opioids on apoptosis in several human cancer cell lines has been probed. Naloxone (10-100μM) has been used to study proliferation and neurogenesis in cultured rat adult hippocampal progenitors.
• Naloxone has also been utilized to modulate the NMDA receptor activation capability of theμ-opioid receptor agonist DAMGO. It displaces morphine and other opiate agonists from the opiate receptor.
• It is more potent than Nalorphine and is also an effective antagonist for mixed agonist-antagonist drugs such as pentazorcine. Naloxone has no respiratory depressant activity.
