Product Information
Td-5471 hydrochloride is a peptide that binds to the voltage-gated potassium channel. The binding of Td-5471 hydrochloride to the potassium channel leads to its activation. This activation causes an increased flow of potassium ions, which in turn depolarizes the cell membrane. This depolarization triggers a series of events that eventually lead to hyperpolarization of the cell membrane and cessation of cellular activity. Td-5471 hydrochloride has been shown to inhibit tumor growth in both animal models and human cancer cells. It also has been shown to activate voltage-gated sodium channels, making it a potential treatment for epilepsy or neuropathic pain.
