Bioactivity | Cd1a is a β-toxin derived from the African spider Ceratogyrus darlingi. Cd1a can regulate calcium ion channels. Cd1a inhibits human calcium ion channels (Cav2.2)(IC502.6 μM) and mouse sodium ion channels (Nav1.7). Cd1a can be used in the development of peripheral pain treatment drugs [1]. |
