Maurocalcine TFA
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Maurocalcine TFA is an agonist of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channel types 1, 2 and 3 with cellular permeability. Maurocalcine TFA induces [3H]ryanodine binding on RyR1 with an EC50 value of 2558 nM. Maurocalcine TFA exhibits a apparent affinity of 14 nM for RyR2. Maurocalcine TFA can be applied to in vivo cell tracking or other cell imaging techniques.

Biological Activity
Maurocalcine (100 nM, 24 h) increases the sensitivity of RyR2 to activating [Ca2+]i and decrease its sensitivity to inhibiting [Ca2+]i[1].
Maurocalcine (5 μM, 4 h/24 h) is absolutely no sign of significant cell toxicity for HEK293[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
