TRPM8 Antagonist (Compound 14) is a potent and selective TRPM8 antagonist, with an IC50 of 0.2 nM, used in the research of neuropathic pain syndromes. TRPM8 Antagonist potently inhibits menthol-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels in Ca2+ fluorimetric assays in HEK293 cells stably expressing the rat isoform of TRPM8 channels (IC50, 40 nM)[1].
TRPM8 Antagonist (1, 10, and 30 mg/kg, s.c.) shows a marked, dose-dependent antinociceptive activity, and inhibits wet-dog shakes (WDS)-like cold hypersensitivity in mice by 63% at 30 mg/kg. In addition, TRPM8 Antagonist (0.1 and 1 μg, s.c.) attenuates Oxaliplatin (OXP)-induced cold allodynia in mice[1].
