Product Data
Biological target:
GMQ hydrochloride is a selective opener of acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3) at pH 7.4.
In vitro activity:
The guanidine compound GMQ antagonized the GABA-mediated response in a concentration-dependent manner with a determined GMQ IC50 value of 13.2 ± 0.6 and Hill coefficient of 1.4 ± 0.1 (n ≥ 4) (Fig. 4, A and D; Table 2). Reference: J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2015 Jun;353(3):551-9. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25829529/
In vivo activity:
NGF aggravated tooth mechanical hyperalgesia that could be alleviated by ASIC3 antagonist (APETx2). Moreover, NGF neutralizing antibody mitigated tooth mechanical hyperalgesia that could be recapitulated by ASIC3 agonist (GMQ).
