Philanthotoxin 433 is a polyamine-containing toxin, which blocks NMDA-gated ion channels; originally isolated from the venom of the wasp Philanthus triangulum.

Addition of 1 mL of solvent to vial yields a 1 mM solution.
Neurotransmitter release is stabilized by homeostatic plasticity. Presynaptic homeostatic potentiation (PHP) operates on timescales ranging from minute- to life-long adaptations and likely involves reorganization of presynaptic active zones (AZs). At Drosophila melanogaster neuromuscular junctions, earlier work ascribed AZ enlargement by

The wasp venom philanthotoxin-4.3.3 (PhTX-4.3.3) is an antagonist of glutamate transmission in the insect as well as in the mammalian brain. It was recently shown that PhTX-4.3.3 inhibits the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) transmission in rat hippocampus. In this study we show

1. The blocking action of delta-philanthotoxin (PhTX-4.3.3), a wasp toxin composed of a polyamine chain, an aromatic amino acid (tyrosyl) nucleus and an aliphatic (butanoic) acid was studied, together with 33 structural analogues, at the glutamatergic neuromuscular synapse in larvae

Antagonism of rat excitatory amino acid receptors by a synthetic analog [philanthotoxin-343 (PhTX-343)] of a polyamine amide, wasp toxin (philanthotoxin-433) and a structurally related spider toxin, argiotoxin-636 (ArgTX-636), was examined in Xenopus oocytes injected with rat brain RNA or RNA

A synthetic analog of philanthotoxin-433, philanthotoxin-343 (PhTX-343), was tested in hippocampal pyramidal neurons in vitro. PhTX-343 (2 microM) did not significantly change synaptic transmission mediated by AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid)/kainate receptors in the CA1 region of hippocampus. However, PhTX-343 significantly
