Product Data
Biological target:
GW 441756 is a potent and specific nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor tyrosine kinases A (TrkA) inhibitor (IC50=2 nM), which eliminates the BmK NSPK-induced neurite outgrowth.
In vitro activity:
GW441756 significantly (p < 0.05 in Figures 3A,B and Supplementary Figure 2F) reduced the NGF effect, leaving almost unaltered the spheroid size when used alone, as a control. Reference: Front Cell Dev Biol. 2021 Jun 29;9:676568. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34268306/
In vivo activity:
The mechanical pain threshold of WAS group decrease from day 0 basal value of 40 ± 24 g to day 10 value of 6 ± 2 g (Fig. 2E; paired t test: p = 0.0415). The daily administration of GW441756 prevented the decrease in mechanical pain threshold. At day 0 the rats presented abdominal mechanical pain threshold of 37 ± 19 g and at day 10 the mechanical pain threshold was 25 ± 18 g (Fig. 2F; paired t test: p = 0.2374).
