CHIR-98023

CAS: 252916-76-0

CHIR-98023 is a peptide that belongs to the group of activators. It is a cell-permeable and potent inhibitor of potassium channels, which are important in the regulation of neuronal excitability. CHIR-98023 has been shown to inhibit the activity of voltage-gated potassium channels, including Kv1.2, Kv1.3, and Kv1.4, in rat brain tissue. It also inhibits the activity of voltage-gated sodium channels in rat brain tissue. CHIR-98023 binds to the receptor site on neuronal ion channels and blocks their opening and closing, leading to a decrease in their activity. This inhibition leads to an increase in neuronal excitability due to an increase in calcium influx into cells as well as an increased availability of neurotransmitters at synapses.
