(RS)-AMPA(Cat No.:R000013)is a synthetic analog of glutamate and a potent agonist of AMPA-type ionotropic glutamate receptors. By binding to these receptors, it induces fast excitatory synaptic transmission, making it a widely used pharmacological tool in neuroscience. Application of (RS)-AMPA helps researchers study receptor kinetics, synaptic plasticity, excitotoxicity, and mechanisms underlying learning and memory. Its racemic mixture (RS) includes both enantiomers, ensuring broad receptor activation. (RS)-AMPA is also employed in disease models of epilepsy, ischemia, and neurodegeneration to investigate glutamatergic dysfunction and potential therapeutic interventions.
