Product Description: Ciproxifan (FUB 359) is a potent, selective, orally bioavailable and competitive antagonist of histamine H3-receptor, with an IC50 of 9.2 nM. Ciproxifan displays low apparent affinity at other receptor subtypes. Ciproxifan can be used for the research of aging disorders and Alzheimer's disease[1][3].
Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism
Formula: C16H18N2O2
