Description

Application

Gallamine triethiodide has been used:

• as a relaxant for measuring spinal trigeminal nucleus recordings from single neurons.
• as an antagonist in neuroblastoma cells as M2 receptor
• to reduce eye movement during retinal surgery in rat

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gallamine triethiodide has anti-muscarinic effect. It is a competitive antagonist for the muscarinic receptor. Gallamine is regarded as neuromuscular blocking agent.

Muscle relaxant; allosteric muscarinic receptor antagonist with an order of potency of M₂ > M₁ = M₄ > M₃ = M₅. Ligand for the peripheral anionic binding site of acetylcholinesterase.
