Cat. No. Product Name Effect Purity
  • HY-101310
    SYM 2081
    Agonist 98.0%
    SYM 2081 is a kainate receptor agonist. SYM 2081 is a substrate of EAAT1 (Km of 54 μM). SYM 2081 inhibits EAAT2-mediated glutamate transport (Kb is 3.4 μM in Xenopus oocytes), modulates Apoptotic signaling pathways (increases Bcl-2 and decreases Bax/caspase-3 expression). SYM 2081 exhibits neuroprotective activity. SYM 2081 can be used in the study of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage and inflammatory or neuropathic pain.
  • HY-12499
    (S)-Willardiine
    Agonist 98.93%
    (S)-Willardiine ((-)-Willardiine) is a subtype-selective glutamate receptor agonist and the active isomer of Willardiine. Willardiine binds to and activates hGluR1, hGluR2, hGluR4 and hGluR5, with Ki values of 3.6 nM and 0.24 nM for hGluR4 and hGluR5, respectively. (S)-Willardiine is used to investigate the distribution and physiological functions of glutamate receptor subunits in the central nervous system.
