    DAMGO TFA purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Aquaculture. 2025 Apr 15.

    Transcript levels of agrp, drd1 and drd2 in glucose and DAMGO stimulation (20 μM; 24 h). DAMGO treatment eliminated the increased expression of drd2 induced by glucose stimulation.

    Fluorescence levels of AgRP and c-Fos in glucose and DAMGO (20 μM) or SCK-39394 stimulation for 24 h. DAMGO treatment rescued the decreased immunoreactivity of Agrp and c-Fos proteins suppressed by glucose.

    DAMGO TFA purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: bioRxiv. 2024 Jul 26:2024.07.26.605282.  [Abstract]

    Representative kinetics of cAMP accumulation in response to agonist stimulation of indicated GPCRs using DAMGO (1 μM; 25 min). Application of DAMGO revealed a robust accumulation of intracellular cAMP as measured using a split-luciferase GloSensor.

    DAMGO TFA purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Seoul National University. 2024 Feb.

    The effect of DAMGO (0.1-1000 nM) on forskolin (3 μM)-induced cAMP production was measured using a GloSensor cAMP assay. DAMGO induced μOR activation and effectively inhibited forskolininduced cAMP production.

    Description

    DAMGO TFA is a μ-opioid receptor (μ-OPR ) selective agonist with a Kd of 3.46 nM for native μ-OPR[1].

    IC50 & Target

    μ Opioid Receptor/MOR

     

    In Vitro

    DAMGO (1-10 μM) TFA significantly reduces the activation of neuronal Akt and ERK1/2 by CXCL12 and inhibits CXCL12-promoted neuronal survival, but does not down-regulate CXCR4 protein expression[2].
    DAMGO (1 μM) TFA effectively inhibits the prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2) induced increase in a tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated Na+ current (TTX-R I Na), i.e. PGE 2 (1 μM) can increase the TTX-R I Na peak by 103 % compared to 24.9 % with the addition of DAMGO[3].

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

    In Vivo

    DAMGO (i.v., 0.5-2 mg/kg) TFA can produce significant anti-injury effects on injured paws of male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 200-225 g in a dose-dependent manner, producing an effective and long-lasting analgesic effect[4].

    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.
