Key Product Details
Description
Product Description
(R)-(+)-Bay K 8644 is a L-type Ca2+-channel blocker with negative inotropic and vasodilatatory effects in vivo. Enantiomer showing opposite effects to the racemate (±)-Bay K 8644 (Cat. No. 1544) and (S)-(-)- enantiomer (Cat. No. 1546). Also TMEM176B inhibitor. Induces IL-1β secretion and caspase-1 activation in bone marrow-derived dendritic cells in vitro and increases survival of tumor-bearing mice, both alone and in combination with immune checkpoint blockers.
Racemate and (S)-(-)-Enantiomer also available.

Species: MouseAssay Type: In VitroCell Line/Tissue: Arcuate nucleusVerified Customer | Posted 12/10/2023R-(+)-Bay-K (5 μM) was used as a part of a mixture (also containing 1 μM omega -Conotoxin GVIA and 1 μM omega -Agatoxin TK) which blocks voltage-gated calcium channels in a living neuron membrane. Left: the effect of activation of 5HT-1B and AMPA receptors on transmembrane current evoked upon membrane depolarization. Blue trace: control; red trace: 5HT-1B and AMPA receptors activation. Right: block of VGCCs results in 100% suppression of transmembrane current.
