Huwentoxin IV

A potent blocker of Neuronal TTX-Sensitive Voltage-Gated Na+ Channel that preferentially inhibits neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel subtype hNav1.7 (SCN9A) (IC50 = 26 nM), rNav1.2 (SCN2A) (IC50 = 150 nM), and rNav1.3 (SCN3A) (IC50 = 338 nM), compared with muscle subtypes rNav1.4 (SCN4A) and hNav1.5 (SCN5A) (IC50 > 10 µM). Huwentoxin IV inhibits the activation of sodium channels by trapping the voltage sensor of domain II of the site 4 in the inward, closed configuration.

Huwentoxin-IV (HWTX-IV), similarly to JZTX-34, inhibited neuronal TTX-sensitive voltage-gated sodium channels with an IC50 value of 30 nM in adult rat dorsal root ganglion neurons (DRG neurons), but have no significant effect on TTX-resistant voltage-gated sodium channels. Recently studies demonstrated that ProTx-II and HWTX-IV binding determinants on domain-II may overlap, with domain II playing a much more crucial role for HWTX-IV. The date also proved that the inhibition of sodium currents could be reversible by strong depolarization due to the dissociation of HWTX-IV.

  • Glucagon

    Glucagon (Porcine glucagon) is a peptide hormone, produced by pancreatic α-cells. Glucagon stimulates gluconeogenesis. Glucagon decreases the activity of HNF-4. Glucagon increases HNF4α phosphorylation.

  • Carbetocin

    Carbetocin is a long-acting synthetic agonist analogue of human oxytocin, with antihemorrhagic and uterotonic activities. Upon administration, carbetocin targets, binds to and activates peripheral oxytocin receptors that are present on the smooth musculature of the uterus. This causes uterus contractions and prevents excessive bleeding after childbirth, particularly following Cesarean section, and may be used to decrease blood loss during hysteroscopic myomectomy.

  • GLP-1 (7-37) Acetate

    Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin derived from the transcription product of the proglucagon gene. The major source of GLP-1 in the body is the intestinal L cell that secretes GLP-2 as a gut hormone.

  • Fertirelin Acetate

    Fertirelin acetate is a potent LHRH agonist. After a transient increase, continuous administration results in downregulation of LH and FSH levels followed by a suppression of ovarian and testicular steroid biosynthesis.

  • Carperitide

    Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) (1-28), human, porcine is a 28-amino acid hormone, that is normally produced and secreted by the human heart in response to cardiac injury and mechanical stretch. ANP (1-28) inhibits endothelin-1 secretion in a dose-dependent way.

  • Argipressin

    Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), or argipressin, is a neurohypophysial hormone found in most mammals. Its two primary functions are to retain water in the body and to constrict blood vessels.

  • Alarelin acetate

    Alarelin acetate is a synthetic LH-RH agonist, and stimulates the release of FSH and LH from the pituitary gland. It is known for its induction of ovulation and used to treat endmometriosis.

  • Deslorelin Acetate

    Deslorelin acetate is an injectable gonadotropin releasing hormone super-agonist (GnRH agonist) also known as an LHRH agonist. It stops the production of sex hormones (testosterone and oestrogen).
