α-Casein (90-95) TFA is a partial agonist of opioid receptors and a copper ion ligand, with opioid activity. α-Casein (90-95) TFA inhibits the secretion of β-hexosaminidase by rat peritoneal mast cells (PMC) with IC50= 0.1 μM. α-Casein (90-95) TFA inhibits the proliferation of prostate cancer cells LNCaP, DU145, and PC3 with IC50 of 0.94 nM, 137 nM, and 6.92 nM, respectively. α-Casein (90-95) TFA activates Gi-like proteins through a membrane-assisted, receptor-independent pathway, or reversibly binds to opioid receptors, inducing intracellular calcium release and conformational changes, and exerts the activity of promoting mast cell secretion and inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. α-Casein (90-95) TFA can be used in the study of the mechanisms of allergic diseases and prostate cancer.

Description

α-Casein (90-95) TFA is a partial agonist of opioid receptors and a copper ion ligand, with opioid activity. α-Casein (90-95) TFA inhibits the secretion of β-hexosaminidase by rat peritoneal mast cells (PMC) with IC50= 0.1 μM. α-Casein (90-95) TFA inhibits the proliferation of prostate cancer cells LNCaP, DU145, and PC3 with IC50 of 0.94 nM, 137 nM, and 6.92 nM, respectively. α-Casein (90-95) TFA activates Gi-like proteins through a membrane-assisted, receptor-independent pathway, or reversibly binds to opioid receptors, inducing intracellular calcium release and conformational changes, and exerts the activity of promoting mast cell secretion and inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. α-Casein (90-95) TFA can be used in the study of the mechanisms of allergic diseases and prostate cancer[1][2][3].

In Vitro

α-Casein (90-95) TFA (0.1 μM; 10 min) can significantly induce the secretion of β-hexosaminidase from rat peritoneal mast cells (PMC)[2].
α-Casein (90-95) TFA (0.94 nM-137 nM; 4-6 days) inhibits the proliferation of prostate cancer cells (LNCaP, DU145, PC3) in a dose-dependent manner, with an inhibition rate of 30%-59%[3].

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

ELISA Assay[2]

Cell Line: Rat peritoneal mast cells (PMC)
Concentration: 0.1 mM (secretagogue assay), 0.5 mM (BAC inhibition assay)
Incubation Time: 10 min (secretion), 5 min (BAC preincubation)
Result: Induced 15.2% β-hexosaminidase release (vs. 5.5% spontaneous release) at 0.1 mM, with maximal secretion within 1 min.
Preincubation with 3.0 μg/mL Benzalkonium chloride (HY-B2232) abolished secretion (inhibition 50.1%), indicating membrane-mediated Gi-protein activation.

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.
