Description
Chlorzoxazone is a SK-type potassium channel activator. Chlorzoxazone modulates FOXO3 phosphorylation and Aβ. Chlorzoxazone enhances immunosuppression, attenuates vasoconstriction, attenuates cognitive deficits, and improves experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10].
