(R)-Nimodipine ((R)-BAY-e 9736) is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable L-type calcium channel blocker with an IC50 of 5 nM. (R)-Nimodipine inhibits corticosterone release by blocking calcium channels on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, thereby reversing immobilization stress-induced memory impairment and behavioral abnormalities. (R)-Nimodipine is widely used in studies related to aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral ischemia, epilepsy, age-related degenerative neurological diseases, and alcohol intoxication[1][2][3].
