NMDAR blocker 1 is an NMDA receptor channel blocker with an IC50 of 5.0 μM. NMDAR blocker 1 exhibits fast on-off blockade kinetics and strong voltage dependence, and does not compete with glutamate or glycine. NMDAR blocker 1 prevents glutamate/NMDA-induced intracellular Ca2+ overload, modulates the glutamate-nitric oxide-cGMP pathway. NMDAR blocker 1 prevents in vitro excitotoxic neurodegeneration of cultured cerebellar and hippocampal neurons. NMDAR blocker 1 attenuates excitotoxic insult in an mouse model of hyperammonemia-induced excitotoxicity. NMDAR blocker 1 can be used for the research of neurodegenerative diseases.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
