Suramin hexasodium salt
Chemical Name: 8,8'-[Carbonylbis[imino-3,1-phenylenecarbonylimino(4-methyl-3,1-phenylene)carbonylimino]]bis-1,3,5-naphthalenetrisulfonic acid hexasodium salt
Biological Activity
Non-selective P2 purinergic antagonist. Also blocks calmodulin binding to recognition sites and G protein coupling to G protein-coupled receptors. Increases open probability of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels. Also acts as a competitive α1β2γ2 GABAA receptor antagonist. Anticancer and antiviral agent.Technical Data
