ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA is a potent, selective P/Q type Ca2+ (Cav2.1) channel blocker with IC50 values of 2 nM and 90 nM. ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA inhibits glutamate exocytosis and calcium influx elicited by high potassium. ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA inhibits Capsaicin (HY-10448)-induced CGRP release and vasodilation. ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA can be used for the research of neurological and cardiovascular disease.

Biological Activity
|
P/Q-type calcium channel |
ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA potently inhibits somatic P-type calcium channels in rat cerebellar Purkinje neurons with an IC50 of 2 nM[1].
ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA inhibits Q-type calcium channels in rat cerebellar granule neurons with an IC50 of 90 nM, which is 45-fold less potent than its activity against P-type channels[1].
ω-Agatoxin IVA TFA inhibits high potassium-induced glutamate exocytosis and calcium influx in rat cortical synaptosomes with IC50 values ranging from 30 nM to 225 nM[1].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (200 nM) TFA inhibits cloned rat brain rbA-I and rbA-II calcium channel isoforms by only 20%[1].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM) TFA does not inhibit voltage-dependent calcium currents in cultured rat sympathetic neurons[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not alter frequency-dependent neurogenic excitatory responses in isolated rabbit pulmonary artery ring preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not significantly inhibit neurogenic cholinergic excitatory responses in isolated guinea-pig myenteric plexus preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not significantly inhibit neurogenic noradrenergic excitatory responses in isolated rat vas deferens preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not significantly inhibit neurogenic excitatory responses in isolated rat bladder strip preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not significantly inhibit neurogenic noradrenergic excitatory responses in isolated rat anococcygeus muscle preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (100 nM; 30 min) TFA does not significantly alter neurogenic NANC inhibitory responses in isolated Atropine (HY-B1205)/Guanethidine (HY-B1251)-treated rat anococcygeus muscle and jejunum preparations preparations[2].
ω-Agatoxin IVA (0.1 μmol/L; 30 min) TFA potently inhibits Capsaicin (HY-10448)-induced CGRP release from isolated rat pial arteries[3].

Animal Model:Sprague-Dawley with Capsaicin-induced vasodilation (male, 250 to 300 g, 12 to 14 weeks old)[3]
-
Dosage:0.1 μmol/L
-
Administration:topical suffusion; 30 minutes before and during exposure/induction
-
Result:Caused a marginal 14.6% increase in baseline pial arterial diameter.
Significantly inhibited capsaicin-induced pial arterial vasodilation.
Increased the slope of the regression line for the vasodilation phase from -1.71 (vehicle) to -0.27.
Increased the slope for the vasoconstriction phase from -1.55 (vehicle) to -0.42.
