Usage

General Description

OMEGA-CONOTOXIN MVIIC is a peptide toxin derived from the venom of the cone snail Conus magus. It is a calcium channel blocker that specifically targets N-type calcium channels in the nervous system. By blocking these channels, OMEGA-CONOTOXIN MVIIC inhibits the release of neurotransmitters, leading to a reduction in synaptic transmission. This potent and selective inhibition of calcium channels makes OMEGA-CONOTOXIN MVIIC a valuable tool for studying the role of calcium channels in nerve conduction and synaptic transmission. Additionally, it has potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of neuropathic pain and other neurological disorders.
