    Product Description

    Bilaid C is a tetrapeptide µ-opioid receptor agonist (Ki = 210 nM in HEK293 cell membranes expressing the human receptor) that has been found in Penicillium.1 It inhibits forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation by 77% in HEK293 cells expressing the human µ-opioid receptor when used at a concentration of 10 µM. Bilaid C induces inward rectifying potassium channel (Kir) currents in rat locus coeruleus slices that endogenously express high levels of the µ-opioid receptor (EC50 = 4.2 µM).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
