Description: | Voacangine is an antagonist for TRPV1 and TRPM8 but as an agonist for TRPA1 (EC50=8 μM). Voacangine competitively blockes capsaicin binding to TRPV1 (IC50=50 μM). Voacangine competitively inhibits the binding of menthol to TRPM8 (IC50=9 μM) and it shows noncompetitive inhibition against icilin (IC50=7 μM). Voacangine selectively abrogates chemical agonist-induced TRPM8 activation and did not affect cold-induced activation. Voacangine is an alkaloid isolated from the root bark of Voacanga africana. |
Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
