    D-GsMTx4 (1 μM). The short-term effect of stretch in fASM cell proliferation. fASM cells on Flexcell plates were pretreated with piezo inhibitors for 1h and then were exposed to 5% static stretch with 5% oscillatory stretch (5% CPAP) with continuous presence of the inhibitors. Control cells were exposed to 5% oscillatory stretch only. Cells were harvested after 24h treatment and counted.

    The long-term effect of stretch in fASM cell proliferation. fASM cells on Flexcell plates were pretreated with D-GsMTx4 (1 μM) for 1h and then were exposed to 5% static stretch with 5% oscillatory stretch (5% CPAP) with or without the inhibitors. Control cells were exposed to 5% oscillatory stretch only. Cells were harvested after 24h treatment and seeded into 96-well plates. After 3-day culture without stretch, cell proliferation was measured by CyQUANT assay.

    Description

    D-GsMTx4 is a spider peptide and the D enantiomer of GsMTx4 (HY-P1410). D-GsMTx4 inhibits the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo2. D-GsMTx4 inhibits [Ca2+]i elevation. D-GsMTx4 inhibits mTOR and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. D-GsMTx4 inhibits mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia. D-GsMTx4 can be used in researches of mechanical stress, chronic pain and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis[1][2][3][4].

    In Vitro

    D-GsMTx4 (5-10 µM) dose-dependently and reversibly inhibits Piezo2-mediated mechanosensitive inward currents in QGP-1 cells and human Piezo2-transfected HEK-293 cells[1].
    D-GsMTx4 decreases phosphorylation levels of proteins in the mTOR and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways in primary human lung fibroblasts (HLFs)[2].
    D-GsMTx4 (5 µM) inhibits mechanical stimulation-evoked [Ca2+]i increases in cultured DRG neurons from CYP-induced cystitis rats[3].

    In Vivo

    D-GsMTx4 (10 μg/10 μL; s.c.; 1 h after IL-1β injection) significantly inhibits mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia in the IL-1β-induced orofacial inflammatory pain rat model[4].
    D-GsMTx4 (5-10 μg/50 μL; s.c. or intracisternally) significantly reduces mechanical allodynia in the orofacial neuropathic pain rat model induced by inferior alveolar nerve injury[4].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Animal Model: Male Sprague Dawley rats with IL-1β-induced inflammatory pain[4].
    Dosage: 10 μg/10 μL (normal saline)
    Administration: Subcutaneous injection, 1 h after IL-1β injection
    Result: Significantly blocked IL-1β-induced mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia, with antiallodynic effects lasting 3-7 h.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
