Description

Phaclofen is a selective GABAB receptor antagonist. Phaclofen is a peripheral and central baclofen antagonist. Phaclofen maybe a potential compound in determining the physiological significance of central and peripheral bicuculline-insensitive receptors with which GABA and (-)-baclofen interact[1][2].

IC50 & Target

GABAB receptor[1]

In Vitro

The GABAB antagonist phaclofen (500 µM) partly prevents the effect of 1 µM of (R+) baclofen[5].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Phaclofen (2 mg/kg; i.p) shows that fewer neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactive fibers are detected in the stimulated cuneate nucleus[4].
Phaclofen (2 mg/kg; s.c) antagonizes the effects of 6 mg/kg R(+) baclofen in dorsal striatum[5].
Phaclofen (100 nmol; intrathecal injection) antagonizes the depressant effect of baclofen. Phaclofen (100 nmol) is devoid of stimulatory or depressant effects on spinal reflexes[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

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.
