TRPM8
M8-B targets the transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) channel as a potent and selective antagonist. It blocks activation of TRPM8 by cold temperatures, icilin, and menthol. In vitro IC50 values: 7.8 nM for cold-induced activation, 26.9 nM for icilin-induced activation, and 64.3 nM for menthol-induced activation. The compound displays no effect at other TRP channels with IC50 >20 mM, indicating high selectivity for TRPM8. M8-B is used to investigate the role of TRPM8 in regulating body temperature and cold-induced thermogenesis. |

| ln Vitro |
M8-B (0-100 µM) decreases maximal Ca2+ uptake in a dose-dependent manner, hence inhibiting TRPM8 channel activity [1].
In vitro studies demonstrate that M8-B is a potent transient receptor potential melastatin-8 (TRPM8) antagonist. It blocks cold-induced and TRPM8 agonist-induced TRPM8 channel activation. The compound shows IC50 values of 7.8 nM for cold-induced activation, 26.9 nM for icilin-induced activation, and 64.3 nM for menthol-induced activation. M8-B displays no effect at other TRP channels with IC50 >20 mM, demonstrating high selectivity. It has been used in thermoregulation research to investigate the role of TRPM8 in regulating body temperature. The compound blocks activation by cold, icilin, or menthol in vitro. |
| ln Vivo |
In rats and mice, M8-B (6 mg/kg; iv or ip) lowers deep body temperature[1].
In vivo studies show that M8-B decreases deep body temperature in wild-type mice and rats. The compound has no effect on body temperature in TRPM8 knockout (KO) mice, confirming that its effects are mediated through TRPM8. M8-B has been used to investigate the role of TRPM8 in regulating body temperature, confirming its ability to inhibit cold-induced thermogenesis. The compound has also been studied for therapeutic efficiency in a mouse model of severe dry eye disease (DED) induced by excision of extra-orbital lacrimal and Harderian glands. It may be used to induce therapeutic hypothermia, which is an effective treatment in cardiac arrest. |
| Enzyme Assay |
For TRPM8 channel binding and functional assays, cells expressing TRPM8 channels (e.g., HEK293 cells) are cultured and loaded with calcium-sensitive fluorescent dyes. M8-B is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in assay buffer to varying concentrations. Cells are treated with the compound and TRPM8 activation is induced by cold stimulation (10-25°C), icilin, or menthol. Calcium flux is measured using fluorescence plate readers. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. For selectivity assays, the compound is tested against other TRP channels. Assays are performed in replicate with appropriate vehicle controls and positive controls (e.g., known TRPM8 antagonists). IC50 values: cold 7.8 nM, icilin 26.9 nM, menthol 64.3 nM.

| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, cells expressing TRPM8 channels (e.g., HEK293 cells or primary sensory neurons) are cultured in appropriate media under standard conditions (37°C, 5% CO2). M8-B is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium to desired concentrations (typically nM range). Cells are treated with compound for specified durations. TRPM8 channel activity is assessed by measuring intracellular calcium flux using fluorescent indicators upon cold, icilin, or menthol stimulation. Cell viability and cytotoxicity can also be assessed. Each concentration is tested in replicate wells with vehicle controls and positive controls. IC50 values: 7.8 nM (cold), 26.9 nM (icilin), 64.3 nM (menthol).

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Trpm8+/+ rats and mice[1]
Doses: 6 mg/kg Route of Administration: Iv or ip Experimental Results: diminished deep body temperature (T(b)) in Trpm8+/+ rats and mice, but not in Trpm8−/− mice. For in vivo animal studies, M8-B is typically administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection in appropriate formulations. In thermoregulation studies, wild-type and TRPM8 KO mice or rats are treated with compound and deep body temperature is monitored using rectal probes or telemetry. In dry eye disease models, mice undergo excision of extra-orbital lacrimal and Harderian glands, followed by treatment with M8-B. Tear production and corneal damage are assessed. Dosing regimens vary by study objective. Blood and tissue samples may be collected for pharmacokinetic analysis. All procedures follow institutional animal care and use committee guidelines. |
