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.

| Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
| Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
