Bioactivity | Maurocalcine is an agonist of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channel types 1, 2 and 3 with cellular permeability. Maurocalcine induces [3H]ryanodine binding on RyR1 with an EC50 value of 2558 nM. Maurocalcine exhibits a apparent affinity of 14 nM for RyR2. Maurocalcine can be applied to in vivo cell tracking or other cell imaging techniques[1][2][3]. |
Invitro | Maurocalcine (100 nM, 24 小时) 增加 RyR2 对激活 [Ca2+]i 的敏感性,并降低其对抑制 [Ca2+]i 的灵敏度[1]。Maurocalcine (5 μM, 4 小时/ 24 小时) 对 HEK293 完全没有细胞毒性[3]。 Cell Viability Assay[3] Cell Line: |
