Biological Activity

[Description]:

Bis(7)-tacrine dihydrochloride is a dimeric AChE inhibitor derived from tacrine. Bis(7)-tacrine dihydrochloride prevents glutamate-induced neuronal apoptosis by blocking NMDA receptors. Bis(7)-tacrine dihydrochloride is a potent GABAAreceptor antagonist. Bis(7)-tacrine dihydrochloride has the potential for the research of Alzheimer's disease [1][2][3].
