| Application: | BAPTA-AM has been used : • to reduce the elevation of cleaved caspase-3 • to block cell death, inhibit ROS (reactive oxygen species) production and inhibit caspase-8 activation • to exclude the effect of changes in intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) concentration during seizure induction • to eliminate the increase of [Ca2+]i induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Selective chelator of intracellular Ca2+ stores. |
| General description: | BAPTA-AM inhibits free radical-mediated toxicity, enhances apoptosis in non-neuronal cells and protects neurons from ischemic damage. It regulates ion channels and blocks neuronal Ca2+-activated K+ channel currents. BAPTA-AM maintains intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. |
