4,9-Anhydrotetrodotoxin (4,9-anhydro-TTX) is a derivative of TTX that selectively blocks inward sodium current through Nav1.6 voltage-activated sodium channels (IC50 = 7.8 nM in Xenopus oocytes). [1][2][3] It demonstrates IC50 values of 1.3, 0.34, 0.99, 78.5, 1.3, and >30 µM for Nav1.2, Nav1.3, Nav1.4, Nav1.5, Nav1.7, and Nav1.8, respectively.[1]
Potent blocker of voltage-gated sodium channels (IC50 values are 0.6, 42, and 72 nM for NaV1.2, NaV1.3 and NaV1.5 respectively). Blocks inward sodium currents in a voltage-dependent manner.
Potent Nav1.7 blocker (IC50 = 2.5 nM). Also inhibits Nav1.1, Nav1.2, Nav1.3 and Nav1.6 in the nanomolar range. Exhibits no effects on Cav channels or nAChR at 5 μM. Demonstrates analgesic activity in vivo; antagonizes effects of scorpion-venom toxin OD1 a
Potent rat Nav1.7, human Nav1.4 and rat Nav1.6 channel activator (EC50 values are 7, 10 and 47 nM, respectively). Exhibits minimal activation at mammalian Nav1.2, Nav1.3 and Nav1.5 (EC50 values >3 μM). Inhibits fast inactivation on all channels. Increases
Selective NaV1.7 channel blocker. Preferentially inhibits neuronal NaV1.7, 1.2 and 1.3 (IC50 values are 26, 150 and 338 nM respectively), compared to muscle subtypes NaV1.4 and 1.5 (IC50 = >10 μM). Inhibits the channel by binding at the neurotoxin recepto
Potent and reversible Kv3.4 potassium channel blocker (IC50 = 47 nM); also attenuates inactivation of sodium currents by acting on Nav1.7 and Nav1.3 channels. Enhances TTX-sensitive sodium currents in rat small dorsal root ganglion neurons. Neuroprotective.
