1. Membrane Transporter/Ion Channel
  2. Potassium Channel
  3. PK-THPP

PK-THPP is a potent and brain-penetrant TWIK-related acid-sensitive K+ ion channel (K2P9.1 or TASK-3) blocker with IC50s of 35 nM and 300 nM for TASK-3 and TASK-1, respectively. PK-THPP shows no or less activity against other K+ channels. PK-THPP is an effective breathing stimulant and can be used for the study of breathing disorders.

In Vitro

PK-THPP (compound 23) is inactive against the K2P channels TREK-1 (IC50 >10 000 nM). PK-THPP is weakly active against the voltage-gated Kv1.5 (IC50 ~5 µM), insensitive to hERG at the highest test concentration (>15 µM), and does not inhibit KATP (<10% inhibition at 10 µM). PK-THPP shows no activity being observed against more than 100 different receptors, ion channels and enzymes (10 µM exposure)[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

PK-THPP (15-100 mg/kg; s.c. 3-5 days) has the ability to regulate sleep architecture in rodent electroencephalogram (EEG) telemetry models[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Male C57/BL6 background or TASK-3 mutant mice and male Sprague–Dawley rats implanted with radiotelemetric monitors[1].
Dosage: 15 mg/kg (rat), 50 mg/kg (rat), 100 mg/kg (mice)
Administration: s.c.; daily; for either three (rat) or five (mice) consecutive days
Result: Increased the time spent awake and decreases the duration of rapid eye movement (REM) and delta sleep in mice.
Dose-dependent effects across all sleep stages were marked by more consistent sleep reductions and greater next-day homeostatic rebound of sleep/wake patterns in rat.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
