The stability of TPNQ allows us to investigate how it interacts with the targeted channels. We found that the interaction between TPNQ and the ROMK1 channel is a bimolecular reaction, i.e., one TPNQ molecule binds to one channel. The interaction surface in TPNQ is primarily formed by its α helix rather than the β sheets with which scorpion toxins form their interaction surface. The mutagenesis studies on both the channel and TPNQ together strongly suggest that to block the K+pore TPNQ plugs its α helix into the vestibule of the K+ pore, while leaving the extended structural portion sticking out of the vestibule into the extracellular media.

  • Sincalide Ammonium Salt

    Sincalide corresponds to the C-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK) and acts on receptors within the gallbladder wall causing it to contract.

  • Deslorelin Acetate

    Deslorelin acetate is an injectable gonadotropin releasing hormone super-agonist (GnRH agonist) also known as an LHRH agonist. It stops the production of sex hormones (testosterone and oestrogen).

  • Angiotensin II

    Angiotensin II human (Angiotensin II) is a vasoconstrictor that mainly acts on the AT1 receptor. Angiotensin II human stimulates sympathetic nervous stimulation, increases aldosterone biosynthesis and renal actions. Angiotensin II human induces growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, increases collagen type I and III synthesis in fibroblasts, leading to thickening of the vascular wall and myocardium, and fibrosis. Angiotensin II human also induces apoptosis.

  • Deslorelin

    Deslorelin is a gonadotropin releasing hormone super-agonist (GnRH agonist) also known as an LHRH agonist. It stops the production of sex hormones (testosterone and oestrogen). It is currently approved for use in veterinary medicine and is used to induce ovulation in mares as part of the artificial insemination process. It is also used to stabilize high-risk pregnancies, mainly of livestock. Unlike other GnRH agonists, which are mainly used to inhibit luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone by their ultimate downregulation of the pituitary gland.

  • Nafarelin Acetate

    Nafarelin acetate is a potent LHRH agonist. After a transient increase, continuous administration results in downregulation of LH and FSH levels followed by a suppression of ovarian and testicular steroid biosynthesis.

  • Aviptadil Acetate

    Aviptadil, also known as vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), is a 28 amino acid neuropeptide that belongs to the glucagon-growth hormone-releasing factor secretion superfamily. Aviptadil acts as a potent systemic vasodilator and bronchodilator. It inhibits the proliferation of vascular and bronchial smooth muscle cells and decreases platelet aggregation. These biological effects are mediated by specific VIP receptors.

  • Degarelix

    Degarelix (INN) or degarelix acetate (USAN) (trade name Firmagon) has an immediate onset of action, binding to gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors in the pituitary gland and blocking their interaction with GnRH. This induces a fast and profound reduction in luteinising hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and in turn, testosterone suppression. Testosterone is a male hormone that promotes growth of many prostate tumours..

  • Argipressin

    Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), or argipressin, is a neurohypophysial hormone found in most mammals. Its two primary functions are to retain water in the body and to constrict blood vessels.
