A poison. | [Biological Activity]
Ultrapotent analog of capsaicin that is an agonist at vanilloid receptors (K i = 43 pM). Like capsaicin, it acts as a selective modulator of primary afferent neurons. Also available as part of the Vanilloid TRPV1 Receptor Tocriset™ . | [Description]
Resiniferatoxin (57444-62-9) is an ultrapotent TRPV1 activator (Ki=43 pM).1 Resiniferatoxin is 100-10,000 fold more potent than capsaicin for most responses yet displays a spectrum of activity distinct from capsaicin.2 A potent sensory neuron excitotoxin.3 Induces a long lasting analgesia in a rodent model of burn pain.4
SEVERE IRRITANT – HANDLE WITH CARE | [Uses]
Resiniferatoxin has been used as an agonist to transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2):
- for complex preparation for cryo-electron microscopy structural studies
- to test its effect towards immune responses to?P.?aeruginosa in sensory neurons associated with the cornea
- to study its effects in the denervation of the peripheral sensory nerves in psoriatic mice
| [Definition]
ChEBI: Resiniferatoxin is a heteropentacyclic compound found in Euphorbia poissonii with molecular formula C37H40O9. It is an agonist of the transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TrpV1). It has a role as a TRPV1 agonist, a plant metabolite, a neurotoxin and an analgesic. It is a diterpenoid, an ortho ester, a tertiary alpha-hydroxy ketone, a member of phenols, a monomethoxybenzene, an organic heteropentacyclic compound, a carboxylic ester and an enone. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Resiniferatoxin (RTX) is an analog of capsaicin. It effectively ablates corneal sensory neurons by activating transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channels. RTX facilitates corneal bacterial clearance. It also elicits protective functionality towards cardiac function in a rat model with congestive heart failure (CHF). | [References]
