| Bioactivity | tracurium (BW-33A free acid) is a potent, competitive and non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent.Atracurium also is an AChR receptor antagonist. Atracurium induces bronchoconstriction and neuromuscular blockade. Atracurium promotes astroglial differentiation[1][2][3][4][5]. |
| Invitro | Atracurium (10 µM; 72 h) promotes astroglial but not neuronal differentiation in HSR040622 and HSR040821 cells[4].Atracurium (10 µM; 48 h) reduces tumor engraftment and increases survival of mice xenotransplanted with ex-vivo treated GSCs[4].Atracurium (2.4 µM; 120 min) induces a complete fade of the tetanic contraction while only slightly affected the twitch in rat extensor digitorum longus muscle cells[5]. Cell Proliferation Assay[4] Cell Line: |
| In Vivo | Atracurium (1, 5, 10, 20, 50 mg/kg; i.v.) induces bronchoconstriction in DBA/2 and SJL mice[2].Atracurium (4.8 mg/kg; i.v.) induces neuromuscular blockade in rats[3]. Animal Model: |
