Veratridine
Veratridine is a steroidal alkaloid isolated from plants of the Veratrum and Schoenocaulon genera. It functions as a sodium channel neurotoxin that delays channel inactivation, leading to prolonged neuronal depolarization. This mechanism makes it a valuable research tool for studying ion channel function and excitotoxicity in both cellular and animal models of neurological disease.
