Dantrolene sodium hemiheptahydrate
Dantrolene sodium is a hydantoin-derived muscle relaxant that inhibits skeletal muscle contraction by binding to the ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1), thereby reducing calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It is widely used in research applications, including in vitro studies of excitation-contraction coupling and in vivo models of malignant hyperthermia and muscle spasticity.
