Mecamylamine is an orally active, nonselective, noncompetitive nAChR antagonist. Mecamylamine is also a ganglionic blocker. Mecamylamine can across the blood-brain barrier. Mecamylamine can be used in the research of neuropsychiatric disorders, hypertension, antidepressant area.

At equivalent molar concentrations, both the salt and free forms of a compound exhibit comparable biological activity. Nevertheless, the salt form (Mecamylamine hydrochloride) usually boasts enhanced water solubility and stability.

    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.
