Product Information

• Name: 1-Oxa-7-azaspiro[4.5]decane
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Oxa-7-azaspiro[4.5]decane is a compound that is structurally related to the neurotransmitter substance P and has been shown to be a potent, selective antagonist of neurokinin (NK) receptors. Oxa-7-azaspiro[4.5]decane inhibits the release of dopamine from rat brain synaptosomes and depresses synapses in the rat hippocampus, an effect that can be reversed by administration of an NK receptor antagonist. This drug also has anti-cancer activity against chemotherapy-induced depression in rats and has been shown to inhibit proliferation in rat hepatocytes. The oxygen atom on the molecule is responsible for its oxidative properties, which are due to its ability to form reactive oxygen species such as superoxide and hydroxyl radicals when it reacts with water or hydrogen peroxide. These reactive oxygen species are able to damage DNA, RNA, enzymes, or other molecules by oxidation.
