Argiotoxin 636
Argiotoxin 636 is a toxin and the non-specific, non-competitive, and potent ionotropic glutamate receptor (iGluR) antagonist. Argiotoxin 636 blocks excitatory synaptic transmission in neurons and has paralysis and muscle relaxation effects. Argiotoxin 636 can be used in the study of nervous system diseases[1][2].
