Product Data
Biological target:
Philanthotoxin 74 dihydrochloride (PhTx 74) is an AMPAR antagonist; inhibits GluR3 and GluR1 with IC50s of 263 and 296 nM.
In vitro activity:
This study evaluated the pharmacological profile of PhTX-74 and related polyamine toxins at homo- and heteromeric AMPARs in the presence and absence of γ-2. Determination of IC(50) values for inhibition of glutamate-evoked currents from Xenopus oocytes expressing recombinant homo- or heteromeric combinations of GluA1, GluA2, and GluA3 in the presence of γ-2 shows that PhTX-74 inhibits homomeric GluA1 and GluA3 receptors nonselectively, with IC(50) values in the nanomolar range (252-356 nM), and heteromeric GluA1/A2 and GluA2/A3 receptors nonselectively, with IC(50) values in the micromolar range (22 μM).

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
