DCPIB est un inhibiteur des canaux anioniques à volume régulé (VRAC) qui est sélectif, réversible et puissant. DCPIB active en fonction de la tension les canaux potassiques TREK1 et TRAAK et inhibe TRESK, TASK1 et TASK3 (IC50s de 0,14, 0,95, 50,72 μM, respectivement). DCPIB est également un bloqueur sélectif du courant de chlorure induit par le gonflement (ICl, gonflement), avec un IC50 de 4,1 μM dans les cellules CPAE.

DCPIB is a selective, reversible and potent inhibitor of volume-regulated anion channels (VRAC). DCPIB voltage-dependently activates potassium channels TREK1 and TRAAK, and inhibits TRESK, TASK1 and TASK3 (IC50s: 0.14, 0.95, 50.72 μM, respectively). DCPIB is also a selective blocker of swelling-induced chloride current (ICl,swell), with an IC50 of 4.1 μM. DCPIB is a useful tool for investigating structure-function studies of K2P channels.

    DCPIB purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Signal Transduct Target Ther. 2024 Dec 30;9(1):367.  [Abstract]

    IRF2BP2 protein abundance was visualized by immunoblotting in BMDMs isolated from Hspa5f/f or Hspa5f/f; Lyz2-Cre mice. These CHX-treated BMDMs were treated with/without ArA or DCPIB (DB) (100 μM; 9 h). The results showed that DB protected IRF2BP2 from degradation in a BiP-dependent manner.

    Description

    DCPIB is a selective, reversible and potent inhibitor of volume-regulated anion channels (VRAC). DCPIB voltage-dependently activates potassium channels TREK1 and TRAAK, and inhibits TRESK, TASK1 and TASK3 (IC50s: 0.14, 0.95, 50.72 μM, respectively). DCPIB is also a selective blocker of swelling-induced chloride current (ICl,swell), with an IC50 of 4.1 μM. DCPIB is a useful tool for investigating structure-function studies of K2P channels[1][2].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

    • 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.
