THIP (Standard)
THIP (Standard) is the analytical standard of THIP. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. THIP (Gaboxadol) is a selective extrasynaptic GABAA receptors (eGABARs) agonist (with blood-brain barrier permeability), shows an EC50 value of 13 μM for δ-GABAAR. THIP induces strong tense GABAA-mediated currents in layer 2/3 neurons, but shows on effect on miniature IPSCs. THIP can be used in studies of sleep disorders[1][2][3].
