Bioactivity | Dynorphin A TFA is an endogenous opioid peptide involved in inhibitory neurotransmission in the central nervous system (CNS). Dynorphin A TFA is a highy potent kappa opioid receptor (KOR) agonist, and is also an agonist for other opioid receptors, such as mu (MOR) and delta (DOR). Dynorphin A TFA can induce neuronal death, and can be used in the research of neurological disease[1][2]. |
Invitro | Dynorphin A TFA (10 μM, 4 h/72 h) increases caspase-3 activity and the level of cytochrome c released from mitochondria in mouse striatal neurons, and induces neuronal death[3].dynorphin A TFA (33 μM, 4 h) elevates [Ca2+]i and causes a significant loss of neurons[4].dynorphin A TFA (1 μM) inhibits the release of vasopressin (VP) from the isolated neural lobe[5].
