Biological Activity

ω-Agatoxin IVA is a potent, selective P/Q type Ca2+ (Cav2.1) channel blocker with IC50s of 2 nM and 90 nM for P-type and Q-type Ca2+ channels, respectively. ω-Agatoxin IVA (IC50, 30-225 nM) inhibits glutamate exocytosis and calcium influx elicited by high potassium. ω-Agatoxin IVA also blocks the high potassium-induced release of serotonin and norepinephrine.

Protocol (for reference only)
Cell Experiment
Cell lines Mouse frontal cortex, mouse spinal cord neurons
Preparation method Following the establishment of baseline activity for 90 min, increasing concentrations of ω-agatoxin were administered to the perfusion medium for 30 min each to generate a concentration response curve for each network. For all neuronal networks, drug exposure was followed by a 1 h washout with fresh recording media perfused at a constant rate of 1 mL per minute to determine if the effects were reversible.
Concentrations 10 nM, 50 nM, 100 nM, 200 nM
Incubation time 30 min
