Fenobam
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Fenobam is a selective and orally active mGluR5 antagonist (IC50=84 nM) that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier. Fenobam shows the Kd values of 54 nM and 31 nM on rat and human recombinant mGlu5 receptors, respectively. Fenobam has anxiolytic activity, inhibits self-administration behavior in mice, and induces apoptosis in cancer cells. Fenobam can be used for research on neurological diseases, cancer and drug addiction.
