Overview

Muscimol (Agarin), a psychoactive isoxazole, is a selective neurotransmitter GABA agonist. Muscimol Binds GABA A on both high- and low-affinity sites ( K d =10 and 270 nM, respectively), stimulating chloride efflux with an EC 50 value of 200 nM. Muscimol passes the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and has memory-disrupting effects.
