Application
AP-18 is a selective TRPA1 channel blocker. AP-18 blocks the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 receptors and can reduce chronic pain associated with arthritis. AP-18 reduces cinnamaldehyde-induced nociception in vivo and blocks cold- and mustard oil-induced activation of mouse TRPA1 but not capsaicin-induced activation. AP-18 reverses CFA-induced mechanical hyperalgesia in mice
Biochem/physiol Actions
AP-18 is a selective TRPA1 channel blocker. Transient receptor potential A1 (TRPA1) plays a central role for chemical sensing in the pain pathway. AP-18 is a novel TRPA1 channel blocker. It reduces cinnamaldehyde-induced nociception in vivo and blocks cold- and mustard oil-induced activation of mouse TRPA1 but not capsaicin-induced activation demonstrating selectivity vs. TRPV11. AP-18 reverses CFA-induced mechanical hyperalgesia in mice.
