Paxilline is a tremorogenic indole diterpene and a potent, selective, and reversible inhibitor of high-conductance Ca2+-activated potassium (BKCa) channels in murine smooth muscle cells by stimulating binding of charybdotoxin (ChTX) to maxi-K channels and blocking the channels.
It is reported that a gain-of-function in BK-channel is related to spontaneous seizures in both animal models and humans. For example: epilepsy and paroxysmal movement disorder. Paxilline can cross the blood-brain barrier and downregulate the abnormal activity of gain-of-function in BK-channel.
Applications:
• BK-channel antagonist
• Anticonvulsant reagent
• Neuronal diseases study
