Apamin TFA (Apamine TFA) is an 18 amino acid peptide neurotoxin found in apitoxin (bee venom), is known as a specifically selective blocker of Ca 2+ -activated K + (SK) channels and exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic activity.
Appearance:Solid
IC50& Target:K + channel
In Vitro:Apamin (0.5-2 µg/mL; 24 hours; HSC-T6 cells) treatment markedly reduces the expression of α-SMA in the TGF-β1-induced HSC-T6 cells. Apamin treatment abrogats the activation of p-Smad2/3 and Smad4 induced by TGF-β1. MCE has not independently confirmed
In Vivo:Apamin (0.1mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; twice a week; for 4 weeks; C57BL/6 male mice) treatment results in decreased liver injury and proinflammatory cytokine levels. Apamin suppresses the deposition of collagen, proliferation of BECs and expression
Biological Activity:Apamin TFA (Apamine TFA) is an 18 amino acid peptide neurotoxin found in apitoxin (bee venom), is known as a specifically selective blocker of Ca 2+ -activated K + (SK) channels and exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic activity.
