Product Description
Cyclotraxin B is a cyclic peptide that is a potent and specific TrkB inhibitor (antagonist) without altering BDNF binding. Cyclotraxin B noncompetitively inhibits BDNF-induced TrkB activity with IC50 of 0.30 nM. Cyclotraxin B crosses the BBB (blood-brain barrier) and has analgesic and anxiolytic behavioral effects.
Cyclotraxin B is a cyclic peptide and selective, potent negative allosteric modulator of tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB). It has an IC50 of 0.30 nM. Its molecular formula is C48H73N13O17S3 and molecular weight is 1200.36. It prevents receptor activation by BDNF without interfering with BDNF binding.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
TrkB
Cyclotraxin B targets TrkB, the primary receptor for Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). It functions as a negative allosteric modulator, meaning it binds to a site distinct from the BDNF binding site and inhibits receptor activation non-competitively. It does not interfere with BDNF binding but prevents BDNF-induced TrkB activation.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Cyclotraxin B inhibits BDNF-induced TrkB activity in a kinase receptor activation ELISA (KIRA-ELISA) using tetracycline-responsive CHO-K1 cells expressing recombinant human TrkB (TetOn-rhTrkB cells) with an IC50 of 0.3 nM. Its inhibitory activity is typically assessed using cell-based assays that measure TrkB phosphorylation in response to BDNF.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Cyclotraxin B has been shown to have analgesic and anxiolytic effects. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier allows it to modulate TrkB signaling in the central nervous system. These studies provide evidence for its potential therapeutic applications in pain and anxiety disorders.
Enzyme Assay
Cell-free assays for Cyclotraxin B typically involve measuring its binding affinity to TrkB using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) or radioligand binding assays. These assays are used to characterize the compound's potency and mechanism of action as a negative allosteric modulator.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays are conducted to evaluate the functional activity of Cyclotraxin B. Cells expressing TrkB are treated with BDNF in the presence or absence of the compound, and TrkB phosphorylation is measured to assess the inhibition of BDNF-induced signaling. These assays confirm that Cyclotraxin B effectively blocks TrkB-mediated cellular responses without interfering with BDNF binding.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments typically involve rodent models of pain or anxiety. Animals are administered Cyclotraxin B via injection. Behavioral tests are used to assess its analgesic and anxiolytic effects. TrkB phosphorylation in brain tissues is measured to confirm target engagement. These studies provide evidence for the compound's therapeutic potential.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of Cyclotraxin B are characteristic of a cyclic peptide. Its molecular weight is 1200.36. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier suggests it has favorable properties for central nervous system targeting. Its pharmacokinetic profile, including half-life and bioavailability, is not fully characterized but supports its use in research.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of Cyclotraxin B is not extensively documented. As a peptide, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. In preclinical studies, the compound has been shown to be well-tolerated at therapeutic doses, with a safety profile that supports its use in research.
