Scyllatoxin

Scyllatoxin, also known as Leiurotoxin I, is a scorpion venom-derived peptide that selectively blocks small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) channels. This action facilitates the enhanced release of catecholamines like norepinephrine and epinephrine, making it a valuable tool for studying SK channel function in neuropharmacology and cardiovascular research.
