Alomone Labs Icilin activates TRPM8 channels expressed in HEK-293 cells. - Dose response curve of human TRPM8 activation by increasing concentrations ofIcilin(#I-145). EC50was determined at 27 nM. hTRPM8/HEK-293 cells were loaded with Calcium-5 dye. Increase in intracellular Ca2+levels following Icilin application was detected as a rise in 485 nm/525 nm fluorescence (RFU).

Product Page - Scientific background :
Icilin is a synthetic cooling substance that acts as a potent TRPM8 channel activator with an EC50 value of 0.2 ± 0.1μM1. This compound also shown to activate TRPA1 ion channel but at higher concentrations. Activation of TRPM8 channel by icilin produces Na+ and Ca2+ ion influx that results in cellular depolarization and the feeling of cold. Icilin has the ability to produce behavioral activation in rats and mice1-3.TRPM8 is a Ca2+-permeable channel, a member of the 'long' or melastatin (M) group of TRP channels and is activated by temperatures in the range of 8-28°C or by cooling compounds such as icilin. The TRPM8 gene is expressed and up-regulated in prostate cancer and other malignancies. TRPM8 channel is specifically expressed in temperature-sensing trigeminal and dorsal root ganglion neurons1,4.

AG 3-5
Source :
Synthetic
Molecular formula :
C16H13N3O4.
Effective Concentration :
1 nM - 1 µM.
Activity :
Icilin is a potent TRPM8 channel activator (EC50 = 0.2 µM)1.
Reconstitution and Solubility :
Centrifuge the vial before adding solvent (10,000 x g for 5 minutes) to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Tap the vial to aid in dissolving the lyophilized product. Tilt and gently roll the liquid over the walls of the vial. Avoid vigorous vortexing. Light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity
Solubility :
Up to 100 mM in DMSO. Centrifuge all products before use (10000 x g 5 min).
