    Product Description

    Bilaid A is a tetrapeptide agonist of the μ-opioid receptor (Ki = 3.1 μM using HEK293 cell membranes expressing the human receptor) that has been found in Penicillium.1 It inhibits forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation in HEK293 cells expressing the human μ-opioid receptor by 21% when used at a concentration of 10 μM.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
