Saclofen
Based on 5 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Saclofen is an orally active and a competitive GABAB receptor antagonist with an IC50 of 7.8 μM. Saclofen has weak antagonistic effects on GABAB1b and GABAB2 heterodimeric recombinant receptors. Saclofen inhibits the binding of Baclofen (HY-B0007) to rat cerebellar membranes and blocks Baclofen-induced circadian phase shifts, and exhibits anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects in rats.

Biological Activity
Saclofen (300 μM, 0-24 h) inhibits the phase changes in the circadian rhythm caused by Baclofen in brain slices of the rat suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) [1].
Saclofen (0.1 μM-1 mM, 10 s) suppresses the increase in CHO intracellular calcium induced by GABA at high concentrations[2].
Saclofen inhibits the binding of Baclofen to rat cerebellar membranes with an IC50 of 7.8 μM[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Saclofen (1mg/mL, i.p., single dose) has analgesic effects in a rat pain model induced by acetic acid[4].

-
Dosage:50 μg/10 μL/rat
-
Administration:i.c.
-
Result:Eliminated the hypotensive effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), restored mean arterial pressure (MAP), and reduced the increase of TNF-α and IL-6 induced by LPS.
