4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)pyridine

Ref. 3D-FM51056

Product Information

• Name: 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)pyridine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)pyridine is a mitochondria-targeting drug that inhibits the transport of cations. Inhibiting the transport of cations has been shown to inhibit respiration and mitochondrial function, resulting in neurotoxic effects on rat liver cells. 4-(4-Methoxyphenyl)pyridine is a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial function, inhibiting β-carbolines and pyridines, which are endogenous compounds derived from tryptophan metabolism. It also has been shown to have parkinsonian effects by inhibiting the synthesis of dopamine in the brain.
