Alomone Labs Resiniferatoxin induces Ca2+influx via activation of TRPV1 expressed in HEK293 cells. - Cells were loaded with 1mM fluo-3 AM and then stimulated withResiniferatoxin(#R-400). The left panel shows the intracellular Ca2+levels 10 sec post stimulation with different concentrations of Resiniferatoxin plotted against drug concentration (ED50= 2 M) . The right panel shows cytoplasmic Ca2+before and after stimulation of cells with 10 M Resiniferatoxin.
product information
CAT :
R-400
SKU :
R-400_0.5 mg
Product Name :
Resiniferatoxin
Group Type :
Non Antibodies
Product Type :
S. Molecules
Storage After Reconstitution :
The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Shipping and storage :
Shipped at room temperature. Product as supplied can be stored intact at room temperature for several weeks. For longer periods, it should be stored at -20°C
Product Page - Scientific background :
Resiniferatoxin is a potent and selective agonist of the TRPV1 (Vanilloid/Capsaicin receptor) channel.1 Application of sub-nanomolar concentrations of Resiniferatoxin irreversibly induces a sustained slow current and depolarization in DRG neurons.2Treatment of rats with Resiniferatoxin, like treatment with capsaicin, causes hypothermia, neurogenic inflammation and pain. These responses were followed by a loss of thermoregulation, by desensitization to neurogenic inflammation and by chemical and thermal analgesia, with a cross-tolerance between Resiniferatoxin and capsaicin.1
Supplier :
Alomone Labs
Target :
TRPV1 channels
Long Description :
Resiniferatoxin (#R-400) is a highly pure, natural, and biologically active compound.
Short Description :
A Potent and Selective Activator of TRPV1 Channel
MW :
628.72
Synonyms :
Reciniferatoxin, RTX
Source :
Natural
Molecular formula :
C37H40O9.
Effective Concentration :
20 nM - 1 µM.
Activity :
Resiniferatoxin is a potent and selective activator of the TRPV1 (Vanilloid/Capsaicin receptor 1) channel1.
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 :
Methanol or ethanol. Centrifuge all product preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).
