ammtx3 is predominantly used in research setting, where it is often injected into specific brain areas to learn more about the role of kv4 channels in those areas. for example, ammtx3 possibly impairs the consolidation of spatial information and learning strategy through kv4 channel inhibition, as found within rats in a radial-maze task. ammtx3 also increases spontaneous pacemaking frequency in substantia nigra pars compacta dopaminergic neurons
