What is CNQX?
Chemical properties
Pale Yellow Solid
The Uses of CNQX
A potent, competitive kainate/quisqualate (non-NMDA) receptor antagonist. IC50 of tritiated ligands to rat cortical membranes by CNQX: AMPA, Kainate and CPP are 0.3mM, 1.5mM, and 25mM, respectively
The Uses of CNQX
CNQX is a competitive, non-NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist (IC50s = 0.3 and 1.5 μM for AMPA and kainate receptors, respectively, versus IC50 = 25 μM for NMDA receptors). This compound has been used to specifically target AMPA and kainate receptor responses and thus differentiate from that of NMDA receptors.
The Uses of CNQX
CNQX disodium salt hydrate has been used as:
- as a competitive non-NMDA receptor antagonist and competitive AMPA/kainate receptor antagonist in neuronal cultures(110)
- as a glutamatergic blockers for measuring inhibitory postsynaptic currents in projection neurons(111)
- as a AMPA glutamate receptor antagonist prefrontal cortex neurons(112)
Definition
