Sal-003 dose-dependently prevents dephosphorylation of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit α (eIF2α).1 It is a more potent derivative of salubrinal (Item No. 14735) that increases eIF2α phosphorylation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) when used at a concentration of 10 µM.2 It impairs late-phase long-term potentiation (LTP) in hippocampal slices from wild-type, but not ATF4 knockout, mice. When infused into the dorsal hippocampus post-training, Sal-003 impairs contextual fear memory in rats.
WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
