Gene Information

Application

Philanthotoxin 343 tris(trifluoroacetate) salt has been used as Ca2+-permeable α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptors (AMPARs) blocker. It has also been used as an effective glutamate receptors blocker in an acute homeostasis paradigm to examine the speed of the Neto-α-mediated homeostatic response in Drosophila.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Blocks NMDA-gated ion channels; synthetic analog of the wasp polyamine amide toxin δ-philanthotoxin.
Philanthotoxin 343 is a synthetic analog of the wasp polyamine amide toxin δ-philanthotoxin. It blocks the activation of ionotropic receptors such as acetylcholine receptor (AChR) or inhibitory glutamate receptors (iGluRs).

Caution

Hygroscopic

Reconstitution

Addition of 1 mL of solvent to vial yields a 1 mM solution.

1. The effects of two adamantane derivatives, 1-trimethylammonio-5-(1-adamantane-methyl-ammoniopentane dibromide) (IEM-1460) and 1-ammonio-5-(1-adamantane-methylammoniopentane dibromide) (IEM-1754) on kainate-induced currents were studied in Xenopus oocytes expressing recombinant ionotropic glutamate receptors and in freshly isolated neurones from rat hippocampal slices. 2. The adamantane derivatives

NMDA receptor stimulation concomitantly increases the release of [14C]acetylcholine and [3H]-spermidine from rat striatal slices in vitro. The NMDA-induced release of both acetylcholine and spermidine was blocked with equal potency by the NMDA channel blocker phencyclidine (0.1-10 microM). However, certain

Primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells have been used to assess the potential neuroprotective effects of philanthotoxins and argiotoxin-636 (ArgTX-636). These polyamine amides are potent antagonists of ionotropic L-glutamate (L-Glu) receptors. In granule cells loaded with fluo-3, ArgTX-636 and

The effects of the arylalkyamine arthropod toxins argiotoxin 636 and philanthotoxin 343 were studied on N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor currents in cultured rat hippocampal neurons using whole-cell recording techniques. Argiotoxin 636 and philanthotoxin 343 blocked 10 microM N-methyl-D-aspartate (+10 microM glycine) currents

Acid-base properties (pKa values and proton distribution patterns) of philanthotoxin-343(PhTX-343) were investigated by 1H and 13C NMR titration. Chemical shift data and the total ionization shifts were used to assign carbon atoms of the polyamine chain. Nonlinear analysis of the
