Application

Saclofen has been used as a GABAB receptor antagonist to study the analgesic effect of repeated injections of oxycodone in rats.
Saclofen has been used to prevent the inhibitory action of oxytocin on capsaicin-induced glutamatergic spontaneous excitatory transmission in rat neurons.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Saclofen is the sulphonic analog of baclofen and is a selective GABAB receptor antagonist.
Saclofen might possess sympathetic nervous system-dependent anti-inflammatory action.

Cue-induced drug-seeking in rodents progressively increases after withdrawal from cocaine, suggesting that cue-induced cocaine craving incubates over time. Here, we explored the role of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC, a brain area previously implicated in cue-induced cocaine seeking) in this

Synaptic plasticity is thought to provide a molecular mechanism for learning and memory. N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor-mediated plasticity requires that N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor activation coincides with postsynaptic depolarizing potentials (DPSP(A)'s). Pentobarbital, in high concentrations, enhances DPSP(A)'s, but high concentrations suppress synaptic plasticity, probably

Pain is a complex mechanism which involves different systems, including the opioidergic and GABAergic systems. Due to the side effects of chemical analgesic agents, attention toward natural agents have been increased. Artemisinin is an herbal compound with widespread modern and
