Chemical 4-Aminopyridine Description
4-Aminopyridine is a nonselective K+ channel blocker that binds from the cytoplasmic side of the cell membrane.Target: Potassium Channel4-Aminopyridine(4AP) is a nonselective K+ channel blocker that binds from the cytoplasmic side of the cell membrane. 4AP strongly potentiates transmitter release from the unmyelinated terminals of rat motor nerves, and the possibility arose that demyelinated axon membrane, which can conduct impulses continuously like an unmyelinated fibre, might further

Chemical 4-Aminopyridine Product Usage
Dalfampridine is used in characterizing subtypes of potassium channel, and has also been used to manage some of the symptoms of multiple sclerosis, and is indicated for symptomatic improvement of walking in adults with several variations of the disease. Dalfampridine is a precursor to the drug Pinacidil.
