Cyclothiazide

SKU: orb1302746

Description

Cyclothiazide is a benzothiadiazide compound that acts as a potent and selective positive allosteric modulator of AMPA receptors. It inhibits receptor desensitization, enhancing glutamate-evoked currents (EC50 = 3.8 µM), and is widely used in neuroscience research to study synaptic transmission, plasticity, and excitatory signaling in both cellular and animal models.
