Kv2.1-syntaxin inhibitor 15 (Kv2.1-syntaxin-IN-15, Cpd5) is a small molecule Kv2.1-syntaxin-binding inhibitor (IC50=5.5 uM) with neuroprotective properties.
Kv2.1-syntaxin inhibitor 15 (Kv2.1-syntaxin-IN-15, Cpd5) is a small molecule Kv2.1-syntaxin-binding inhibitor (IC50=5.5 uM) with neuroprotective properties.
Kv2.1-syntaxin inhibitor 15 competitively binds syntaxin against C1aB-containing Kv2.1 peptides with IC50 of 5.5 uM.
Kv2.1-syntaxin inhibitor 15 (10 uM) significantly diminished threo-β-benzyloxyaspartate (TBOA, 75 uM)-induced toxicity neuronal cultures, ameliorated significant cellular damage, by preventing the expression of enhanced Kv2.1-mediated K+ currents.
Kv2.1-syntaxin inhibitor 15 is a first-in-class inhibitor of Kv2.1 binding to Syntaxin, likely due to inhibition of the C1a region of Kv2.1 binding to syntaxin.
Cpd5 (10 μM) does not affect evoked AMPAR EPSCs in layer 2/3 corticocallosal neurons in the mouse auditory cortex.
