NBQX disodium salt
NBQX disodium salt is a potent, highly selective and competitive antagonist of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) receptors (AMPARs). The AMPAR is one type of ionotropic glutamate receptors, well known to be involved in various neurological disorders such as Alzheimer disease, schizophrenia, and epilepsy, by mediating long-term potentiation, excitotoxicity, or both. Inhibition of AMPARs with NBQX shows neuroprotective and anticonvulsant activity.

| General tips | We do not recommend long-term storage for the solution, please use it up soon. |
| Cell experiment:[1] | |
| Cell lines | HIP-009 cells |
| Reaction Conditions | 1 h incubation |
| Applications | NBQX inhibited both AMPA or kainic acid (KA) induced signals in a concentration-dependent manner, with IC50 values being 0.7 ± 0.1 and 0.7 ± 0.03 µM, respectively. The AMPA-evoked calcium rise was completely inhibited by NBQX, whereas 68.6% ± 1.3% inhibition of the KA-induced signal was observed with 30 μM of NBQX treatment. |
| Animal experiment:[2] | |
| Animal models | Male Wistar rats intraperitoneally injected with pentylenetetrazole |
| Dosage form | 20 mg/kg Once daily by intraperitoneal injection for 3 days |
| Applications | NBQX was sufficient to decrease pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures through increasing the latency to seizures, decrease the duration of seizure onset, and reduce the scores for the severity of seizures. |
