RQ-00203078

Description

RQ-00203078 is a selective antagonist of transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8; IC₅₀s = 8.3 and 5.8 nM in human and rat, respectively), while having little inhibitory action against TRPV1 (IC₅₀ > 30 μM), TRPA1 (IC₅₀ > 10 μM), TRPV4 (IC₅₀ = 10 μM), or TRPM2 channels (IC₅₀ > 10 μM). It attenuates icilin-induced wet-dog shakes in rats (ED₅₀ = 0.65 mg/kg) after oral administration. RQ-00203078 has been shown to reduce HSC3 and HSC4 oral squamous carcinoma cell migration and invasion in vitro. TRPM8, a member of the TRP melastatin subgroup, plays a role in cold hyperalgesia and cold allodynia caused by disease conditions such as chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, migraine, and overactive bladder. It is also known to be involved in the tumor progression of certain carcinomas.

Uses

RQ 00203078 is a selective and orally active TRPM8 antagonist.

in vitro

in the menthol-induced calcium influx assay, rq-00203078 is a novel and highly potent trpm8 antagonist with human and rat ic50 values of 8.3 nm and 5.8 nm, respectively. rq-00203078 was highly selective over other trp channels [1].

in vivo

rq-00203078 demonstrated excellent activity in vivo in a dose dependent manner with an ed50 value of 0.65 mg/kg in the icilin-induced wet-dog shakes model in rats after oral administration [1].

IC 50

8.3 and 5.8 nm for htrpm8 and rtrpm8, respectively

storage

Store at +4°C
