Bioactivity | Losigamone (AO-33) is an orally active antiepileptic compound. Losigamone blocks sodium channel. Losigamone stimulates the neuronal chloride channel and enhance chloride influx. Losigamone potentiates GABA-mediated responses and reduces epileptiform activity induced by chloride channel antagonists. Losigamone can be used for epilepsy research[1][2]. |
