Extra Details:
(+)-Camphor (Standard) is the analytical standard of (+)-Camphor. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. (+)-Camphor (D-(+)-Camphor; (1R)-(+)-Camphor) is an isomer of Camphor. Camphor is an agonist of monoterpenoid transient receptor potential (TRP) channels (such as TRPV1; TRPV3; TRPM8) and an inhibitor of TRPA1 channels. Camphor's derivatives have multiple biological activities; including antibacterial; antiviral; antioxidant; analgesic and anticancer. Camphor can selectively activate cold-sensitive TRP channels and inhibit TRPA1-mediated nociceptive signals. Camphor stimulates the cold-sensing nerve endings in the skin and regulates the activity of ion channels to exert analgesic; anti-inflammatory and anti-itching effects. It also has anti-proliferative and anti-mutagenic activities on tumor cells; which may be related to inhibiting ribosome function or inducing cell apoptosis. Camphor can be absorbed through the skin and (+)-Camphor can be used in the study of muscle and joint pain and inflammation[1][2].
