Ifenprodil (NP-120) tartrate, a cerebral vasodilator, is a noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist. Ifenprodil tartrate exerts high affinity at NR1A/NR2B receptors (IC₅₀=0.34 μM) over 400-fold than at NR1A/NR2A receptors (IC₅₀=146 μM). Ifenprodil tartrate is an α1 adrenergic receptor antagonist. Ifenprodil tartrate inhibits GIRK (Kir3), reduces inward currents through the basal GIRK activity. Ifenprodil tartrate has reliable inhibitory effects against A/H1N1 strains (EC₅₀ of 6.6 µM). Ifenprodil tartrate has neuroprotective, anticonvulsant and antinociceptive effects. Ifenprodil tartrate can be used for the study of cerebrovascular diseases and peripheral arterial obliterative disease.

In Vitro

The degree of inhibition seen with 100 μM Ifenprodil tartrate at NR1A/NR2A receptors is not altered by changes in the concentration of extracellular glycine. However, the inhibitory effect of 1 μM Ifenprodil tartrate at NR1A/NR2B receptors is reduced by increasing the concentration of glycine^[1].
In oocytes injected with mRNAs for GIRK1/GIRK2, GIRK2 or GIRK1/GIRK4 subunits, Ifenprodil (3 μM) tartrate reversibly reduces inward currents through the basal GIRK activity^[2].
Ifenprodil tartrate interacts with several other receptors, namely, serotonin (5-HT) subtype 1A, 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, and σ receptors at nanomolar concentrations and that it inhibits voltage-gated Ca²⁺ channels at micromolar concentrations^[2].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
