| Targets |
FEMA-4809 targets the TRPM8 (transient receptor potential melastatin 8) receptor, a non-selective cation channel that is activated by cool temperatures (below 25°C) and by ligands such as (-)-menthol. As a potent TRPM8 receptor agonist, FEMA-4809 activates the channel and induces a cooling sensation. The compound has an EC50 of 0.2 nM for TRPM8 activation, making it one of the most potent TRPM8 agonists known.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
FEMA-4809 is a highly potent TRPM8 receptor agonist with an EC50 of 0.2 nM. Its activity can be assessed using cell-based assays in which cells expressing the human TRPM8 channel are treated with the compound and the resulting calcium influx is measured using a calcium-sensitive dye (e.g., Fluo-4). The EC50 for receptor activation is determined from dose-response curves. The compound's potency is significantly higher than that of (-)-menthol, making it a valuable tool for studying TRPM8 function.
|
| ln Vivo |
FEMA-4809 induces a cooling sensation through the activation of the TRPM8 ion channel. It is used as a cooling agent in the food and beverage industry for its distinct fruity and floral notes. The compound's high potency allows for its use at very low concentrations, minimizing any off-taste or other sensory effects. FEMA-4809 is a flavoring compound used to impart a cooling sensation to food and beverage products.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cellular assays for FEMA-4809 are limited as it is a receptor agonist that requires cellular context for activity. Its binding affinity for the TRPM8 receptor can be assessed using radioligand binding displacement studies with membrane preparations from cells expressing TRPM8. The membranes are incubated with a radiolabeled TRPM8 ligand and varying concentrations of FEMA-4809, and the IC50 is determined from displacement curves. The compound's physicochemical properties can be characterized using standard analytical techniques.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for FEMA-4809 involve treating cells expressing the human TRPM8 channel with the compound and measuring receptor-mediated calcium influx. Cells are loaded with a calcium-sensitive dye (e.g., Fluo-4) and treated with varying concentrations of FEMA-4809. The increase in intracellular calcium concentration is measured using a fluorescence plate reader. The EC50 for receptor activation is determined from dose-response curves. The compound's activity is compared to that of (-)-menthol and other TRPM8 agonists.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments are not applicable for FEMA-4809 as it is a flavoring compound and cooling agent used in food products, not a therapeutic agent. Its safety and efficacy are evaluated through sensory evaluation tests in humans and through toxicological studies. The compound is not administered to animals for pharmacological studies.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
FEMA-4809 has a molecular weight of 327.40 and a molecular formula of C17H17N3O2S. It is a solid at room temperature and is typically stored at -20°C. Purity is ≥95%. The compound is soluble in DMSO (250 mg/mL, ultrasonic). It is stable under recommended storage conditions and is protected from light and moisture.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
FEMA-4809 is generally recognized as safe for use as a flavoring agent at the levels typically employed. Standard food safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound. As a TRPM8 agonist, it may cause a cooling sensation upon contact with skin or mucous membranes. Appropriate personal protective equipment should be used when handling the compound.
