Product Description
Jedi2 is a Piezo1 activator, but not a Piezo2 activator. Jedi2 binds to mouse Piezo1 protein with Kd of 2770 μM.
Jedi2 (CAS#: 651005-90-2) is a synthetic small molecule classified as a chemical activator of the mechanosensitive Piezo1 ion channel. It is a 2-methyl-5-(thiophen-2-yl)furan-3-carboxylic acid derivative with a molecular weight of 208.23. Jedi2 activates Piezo1 through interaction with extracellular regions of the peripheral blade-like domain. It evokes Piezo1-mediated Ca2+ influx, and has been demonstrated to trigger specific responses in HEK293 cells that express Piezo1 channels. Importantly, Jedi2's effect is selective for Piezo1 channels, as it induces responses in cells transfected with mouse Piezo1, but not in those expressing Piezo2 channels.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of Jedi2 is the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo1. Jedi2 binds to the mouse Piezo1 proteins with a Kd of 2770 µM. It activates Piezo1 through interaction with extracellular regions of the peripheral blade-like domain. Piezo1 is a non-selective cation channel that mediates Ca2+ influx in response to mechanical stimuli. The compound shows selectivity for Piezo1 over Piezo2, as it does not induce responses in cells expressing Piezo2 channels.
ln Vitro
Piezo1-mediated Ca2+ influx is caused by Jedi2. In mPiezo1-transfected cells, Jedi2 (200 μM) potential elicited quantifiable responses, but not in mPiezo2- or vector-transfected cells [1]. In mCherry HEK293T cells transfected with the mPiezo1-mCherry construct, Jedi2 (1 mM) dramatically increases Ca2+ levels; these cells are similarly responsive to Yoda1 (30 μM) [1].
In vitro, Jedi2 evokes Piezo1-mediated Ca2+ influx. The compound binds to mouse Piezo1 proteins with a Kd of 2770 µM. Jedi2 promotes the influx of calcium ions (Ca2+) into cells, and this activation has been demonstrated in HEK293 cells that express Piezo1 channels. Importantly, Jedi2's effect is selective for Piezo1 channels, as it induces responses in cells transfected with mouse Piezo1, but not in those expressing Piezo2 channels.
ln Vivo
No specific in vivo activity data is publicly available for Jedi2. As a Piezo1 channel activator, it would be expected to modulate mechanosensitive signaling pathways in vivo. However, specific in vivo efficacy data from animal models is not detailed in the available sources. The compound is for research use only and not for therapeutic applications.
Enzyme Assay
For Piezo1 channel activators, standard cell-free assays are not typically applicable as Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel that requires membrane environment for proper function. However, binding studies can be performed using purified Piezo1 protein or membrane preparations to measure binding affinity (Kd) using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or other biophysical methods.
Cell Assay
For Piezo1 channel activators, standard cellular assays involve the use of cells expressing recombinant Piezo1 channels (e.g., HEK293 cells transfected with mouse Piezo1). Cells are loaded with calcium-sensitive fluorescent dyes, and Ca2+ influx following compound addition is measured by fluorimetry or imaging. Jedi2 evokes Piezo1-mediated Ca2+ influx in these cells. Selectivity for Piezo1 over Piezo2 is assessed using cells expressing Piezo2 channels.
Animal Protocol
No specific animal protocol is available for Jedi2. For in vivo evaluation of Piezo1 modulators, standard animal models include pain models, models of mechanotransduction, and models of vascular function. The compound is typically administered systemically, and physiological and behavioral endpoints are assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Jedi2 has a molecular weight of 208.23 and formula C10H8O3S. The IUPAC name is 2-Methyl-5-(2-thienyl)-3-furancarboxylic acid. It is soluble in DMSO. The compound should be stored dry, dark, and at 0-4°C for short term or -20°C for long term.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicology data is publicly available for Jedi2. As a research compound targeting Piezo1 channels, standard preclinical toxicology would be required for therapeutic development. The compound is for research use only and not for therapeutic applications.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~50 mg/mL (~240.12 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.5 mg/mL (12.01 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 + to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

5 mM 0.9605 mL 4.8024 mL 9.6048 mL
10 mM 0.4802 mL 2.4012 mL 4.8024 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
