General description

N-(p-Amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid (ACA) functions as a broad spectrum phospholipase A2 inhibitor and blocks transient receptor potential (TRP) channels. It inhibits calcium activated chloride current in cardiac ventricular myocytes. ACA regulates various ion channels.

Application

N-(p-Amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid has been used as a transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 2 (TRPM2) inhibitor, in studying its role in regulating the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
N-(p-Amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid is a broad spectrum PLA2 inhibitor and TRP channel blocker. N-(p-Amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid has been used to study the functional expression of TRPM2 channels in dopaminergic SNc neurons.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Broad spectrum phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor and TRP channel blocker.
