Nizofenone
Nizofenone is a neuroprotective agent which protects neurons from death following cerebral ischemia or anoxia. Nizofenone can be used in the research of acute neurological conditions, such as stroke.

Biological Activity
Nizofenone (1 and 10 μM) prolongs the action potential duration of guinea-pig papillary muscle and dog Purkinje fibers[3].
Nizofenone (30 μM) suppresses the spontaneous activity of dog Purkinje fibers and guinea-pigs S-A node[3].
Nizofenone (100 μM) decreases the contractile force of guinea-pig papillary muscle[3].
Nizofenone (10 μM) inhibits the peroxidative disintegration of mitochondria (in rat brain mitochondrial suspension)[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Nizofenone (10 mg/kg i.p.) inhibits ischemia-induced glutamate increase and lactate increase in the hippocampus of rats[2].
