Description

Methocarbamol is an orally active central muscle relaxant and blocks muscular Nav1.4 channel. Methocarbamol reversibly affects voltage dependence of inactivation of Nav1.4 channel. Methocarbamol has the potential for muscle spasms and pain syndromes research[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target[3]

Nav1.4

 

In Vitro

Methocarbamol (2 mM; for 20 min) significantly increases the decay times of the EPCs and those of the EPPs induced by the phrenic nerve stimulation[3].
Methocarbamol has no effect on Nav1.7 currents[3].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Methocarbamol (200 mg/kg; ip) has Muscle relaxant activity of 88.96%[3].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
