Tetracaine

Overview

Tetracaine (Amethocaine) is a sodium channel inhibitor and ryanodine receptor ( RyR ) inhibitor. Tetracaine blocks sodium conduction across nerve cell membranes, preventing rapid sodium ion influx and depolarization. Tetracaine exhibits biphasic effects on spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ release in Ca 2+ -overloaded ventricular myocytes, and increases sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ load. Tetracaine can be used in research related to eye diseases.
