TTX is a potent marine-derived neurotoxin that reversibly inhibits the inward sodium current through voltage-activated sodium (NaV) channels, blocking nerve and muscle action potentials. It inhibits the NaV current in frog muscle and squid axon with IC50 values of 4.1 and 5.2 nM, respectively, and binds to rat brain membranes with a Kd value of 1.8 nM.{23790} TTX was used in Hodgkin and Huxley’s classic experiments to elucidate the physical biology of nerve action potentials and remains an indispensible neuroscience tool to pharmacologically dissect the contribution of the NaV current in excitable neurons and to rationally design compounds for the treatment of neuropathic pain.{23790}

Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
