chloroguanabenz

Chloroguanabenz is an antiprion agent and a derivative of the α2-adrenergic receptor agonist guanabenz . It inhibits prion formation in yeast and mammalian cell-based assays. Chloroguanabenz reduces the levels of both soluble and aggregated forms of the truncated Huntingtin derivative Htt48 in an HEK293T cellular model of Huntington's disease.

Chloroguanabenz (acetate) 是胍那苄的衍生物，是一种抗朊病毒剂和 α2-肾上腺素受体激动剂。它在酵母和哺乳动物的体外试验中能够抑制朊病毒的形成，并降低 HEK293T 细胞中截短型亨廷顿蛋白衍生物 Htt48 的水平。Chloroguanabenz (acetate) 可用于亨廷顿舞蹈症的研究。
