Scientific Background | 2-APB is a versatile chemical tool that inhibits IP3 receptors and modulates TRP channel activity. In neuroscience, it is widely used to manipulate intracellular calcium release and study calcium-dependent signaling pathways. 2-APB also inhibits gap junctions composed of connexin26 and connexin32, making it relevant in research on neuronal communication and network synchronization. Its broad activity profile supports its use in studies of neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity, and neurodegeneration. |
