Description

(R)-Praziquantel, the active enantiomer of Praziquantel, is a partial agonist of the human 5-HT2B receptor. (R)-Praziquantel acts as an antischistosomal eutomer[1].

Antischistosomal

 

In Vitro

(R)-Praziquantel ((R)-PZQ) is a G-protein-coupled receptor ligand. (R)-Praziquantel modulation of serotoninergic signaling occurs over a concentration range sufficient to regulate vascular tone of the mesenteric blood vessels where the adult parasites reside within their host. The important anthelmintic is supported by a broad, cross species polypharmacology with (R)-Praziquantel modulating signaling events in both host and parasite[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
