Biochem/physiol Actions 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone is a selective tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) receptor agonist. It manifests all the therapeutic effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)-such as protecting neurons from apoptosis, inhibiting kainic acid-induced toxicity, decreasing infarct volumes in stroke, and neuroprotecting in an animal model of Parkinson′s disease-without the poor pharmacokinetic profile of BDNF limiting its therapeutic potential.1 Other Notes Tandem Mass Spectrometry data independently generated by Scripps Center for Metabolomics is available to view or download in PDF. D5446.pdf Tested metabolites are featured on Scripps Center for Metabolomics METLIN Metabolite Database. To learn more, visit sigma.com/metlin. |
