Cas No.:1209500-46-8
Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
GsMTx4 is a 34 amino acid spider venom peptide and belongs to the huwentoxin-1 family[1]. GsMTx4 selectively inhibits cation-permeable mechanosensitive channels (MSCs) belonging to the Piezo, TRPC1 and TRPC6 channels.
GsMTx4 is similar to many other channel-active peptides isolated from spider venom, which are small (3–5 kD) amphipathic molecules built on a conserved inhibitory cysteine-knot (ICK) backbone[4].GsMTx4 has high potency for inhibiting mechanosensitive channels, and its inhibition is not stereospecific, i.e., both its enantiomers (L- and D-form) inhibiting MSCs[3].
GsMTx4 significantly attenuates bladder hyperactivity[2]. Intraperitoneal injection of GsMTx-4 has been shown to reduce mechanical hyperalgesia induced by carrageenan or sciatic nerve injury[5], although it does not inhibit SAC currents in cultured DRG neurons[6].
GsMTx4 is an important pharmacological tool for identifying the role of these excitatory MSCs in normal physiology and pathology[4].

GsMTx4是一种由34个氨基酸组成的蜘蛛毒素肽,属于huwentoxin-1家族[1]。GsMTx4选择性地抑制属于Piezo、TRPC1和TRPC6通道的阳离子渗透机械敏感通道(MSCs)。
GsMTx4是从蜘蛛毒液中分离出来的一种类似于许多其他通道活性肽的物质,它们都是建立在保守的抑制性半胱氨酸结(ICK)骨架上的小型(3-5 kD)两亲分子[4]。GsMTx4对于抑制机械敏感通道具有很高的效力,并且其抑制作用不具有立体特异性,即其左旋和右旋异构体均能够抑制MSCs[3]。
GsMTx4可以显著减轻膀胱过度活动[2]。已经证明,通过腹腔注射GsMTx-4可以减少由卡拉胶或坐骨神经损伤引起的机械性高敏感性[5],但它不会抑制培养的DRG神经元中的SAC电流[6]。
GsMTx4是一种重要的药理学工具,用于确定这些兴奋性MSC在正常生理和病理中的作用[4]。

Preparation method |
For Piezo1 channels, the extracellular solution contained 145 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 3 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM CaCl2, and 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.4). The pipette solution contained 133 mM CsCl, 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.4). The inhibition produced by application of GsMTx4 was followed by ∼60 s of washout, followed by application of WT GsMTx4 as a control. |

5 μM GsMTx4, 40s |
Applications |
GsMTx4 is a spider venom peptide that inhibits cationic mechanosensitive channels (MSCs). A model placing GsMTx4 at the membrane surface, where it is stabilized by the lysines, and occupying a small fraction of the surface area in unstressed membranes. When applied tension reduces lateral pressure in the lipids, the peptides penetrate deeper acting as “area reservoirs” leading to partial relaxation of the outer monolayer, thereby reducing the effective magnitude of stimulus acting on the MSC gate. |

Dosage form |
To the WT and ClockΔ19/Δ19 mice, GsMTx4 or vehicle was administered via intraperitoneal injection (IP) at two different time-points, Z12- and ZT0-IP (higher and lower Piezo1 expression periods in the WT mice, respectively). The WT and ClockΔ19/Δ19 mice were injected with 0.75 (low dose-IP) or 1.5 mg/kg (high dose-IP) of GsMTx4 in 100 μL of distilled water. |
Applications |
VF decreased at ZT12-IP in WT mice only with high dose of GsMTx4 but showed no effects in ClockΔ19/Δ19 mice. GsMTx4 did not affect Uvol in both mice at ZT12-IP. A decrease in Uvol was observed in both mice at ZT0-IP; however, it was unrelated to GsMTx4-IP. The effects of GsMTx4 changed associated with the circadian clock and Piezo1 expression level. |
