Biological Activity: Metaxalone (AHR438; NSC170959) is an FDA-approved muscle relaxant. Metaxalone acts mainly on the central nervous system and achieves muscle relaxation by inhibiting polysynaptic reflex arcs. In addition, Metaxalone is an inhibitor of MAO-A, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Metaxalone inhibits IL-1β-induced inflammatory phenotype, modulates NF-κB and other related signaling pathways, and decreases MAO-A expression and activity in IL-1β-treated microglia[1][2].
