α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium is an agonist of P2X1 and P2X3 receptors and can cross the blood-brain barrier. α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium can trigger a reflex pressor response by activating P2X receptors in peripheral muscles and the central locus coeruleus (LC); this effect can be blocked by the P2X antagonist PPADS (HY-108960). α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium also activates noradrenergic neurons in the central locus coeruleus, mediating antinociceptive effects; this effect can be attenuated by the locus coeruleus damaging agent DSP-4 (HY-103210/HY-121602). α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium can be used to study the pathological mechanisms of neuropathic pain, cardiovascular reflex regulation, and antinociceptive effects of the central nervous system.

Electrophysiological activity: α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium (10 μM; 3 seconds) evokes a fast inward current in rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, associated with P2X3 receptor activation. 10 μM Diinosine pentaphosphate (Ip5I) can significantly inhibit this inward current[1].
α,β-Methylene-ATP trisodium (10 μM; transient) enhances the amplitude of the current evoked by Acetylcholine (HY-B0282) in rat adrenal medullary chromaffin cells and increases the proportion of the current sensitive to α-conotoxin RgIA (HY-P5845)[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
α,β-Methylene-ATP (10 nmol/rat; intracerebroventricular injection; single dose) trisodium produces an anti-mechanical nociceptive effect in Sprague-Dawley rats, which is significantly attenuated by pretreatment with DSP-4 (HY-121602/HY-103210) (10 mg/kg DSP-4; intraperitoneal injection)[3].
α,β-Methylene-ATP (0.1-1 nmol/side; bilateral microinjection into the locus coeruleus; single dose) trisodium increases the pain threshold of Sprague-Dawley rats in a dose-dependent manner, an effect that could be antagonized by co-injection of PPADS (HY-108960) (0.1-1 nmol/side)[3].

Animal Model:Decerebrate cats[2]
-
Dosage:5, 20, 50 µg/kg α,β-Methylene-ATP
-
Administration:Left popliteal artery injection, single dose
-
Result:Significantly increased mean arterial pressure. The pressor response was attenuated by sciatic nerve section and completely blocked by prior popliteal artery injection of PPADS (10 mg/kg), indicating involvement of P2X receptors in muscle afferents.
-
Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley rats (male, 180-250 g, 6-8 weeks old)[3]
-
Dosage:10 nmol/rat
-
Administration:Intracerebroventricular injection, single dose
-
Result:Elevated the mechanical nociceptive threshold by 63.6% at 5 min post-injection. Pretreatment with DSP-4 (50 mg/kg, i.p.), a noradrenergic neurotoxin, reduced the antinociceptive effect to baseline levels, suggesting involvement of locus coeruleus noradrenergic neurons.
-
Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley rats (male, 180-250 g, 6-8 weeks old)[3]
-
Dosage:0.1-1 nmol/side
-
Administration:Bilateral locus coeruleus microinjection, single dose, no cycle
-
Result:Dose-dependently increased the nociceptive threshold (peak at 5 min, 117.9% above control at 1 nmol/side).
Co-injection of PPADS (1 nmol/side) completely antagonized the antinociceptive effect, confirming P2X receptor-mediated mechanism.
