Bioactivity | Capsazepine is a synthetic analogue of the sensory neurone excitotoxin, and an antagonist of TRPV1 receptor with an IC50 of 562 nM. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Capsazepine (50 μM) optimally enhances the upregulation of (death receptors) DRs without affecting cell viability HCT116 cells. Capsazepine (30-50 μM) induces ROS generation and ROS mediate Capsazepine-induced DR5 upregulation in HCT116 cells[1]. Capsazepine (1-100 μM, 45 min preincubation) inhibits the evoked CGRP-LI release. Capsazepine (3-100 μM) prevents low pH- and capsaicin-induced CGRP-LI release from rat soleus muscle at concentrations which do not affect the release evoked by KCl. Capsazepine (3-100 μM, without 10 μM) produces a nonspecific inhibitory effect on CGRP-LI release from peripheral endings of the capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent neurone[2]. | ||||||||||||
