Product Description
GW791343 tri HCl is a potent NAM (negative allosteric modulator) (species-specific) of human P2X7 receptor, which produces noncompetitive antagonism to human P2X7 receptor, with pIC50 of 6.9-7.2. GW791343 tri HCl enhances circadian ATP release. GW791343 tri HCl may be utilized in the research of neurological diseases.
GW791343 trihydrochloride (CAS#: 309712-55-8) is a non-competitive, negative allosteric modulator (NAM) of the human P2X7 receptor, a ligand-gated ion channel activated by extracellular ATP. This compound exhibits species-specific activity and is available as a trihydrochloride salt with a purity of ≥98%. It is primarily used in research to study neuroinflammation, circadian rhythms, and neurological disorders, as the P2X7 receptor is implicated in various pathological conditions including chronic pain, neurodegenerative diseases, and inflammatory responses. GW791343 trihydrochloride is a small molecule that enhances circadian ATP release and is a valuable tool for dissecting P2X7-mediated signaling pathways.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
P2X7 Receptor 6.9-7.2 (pIC50)
The primary target of GW791343 trihydrochloride is the human P2X7 receptor (hP2X7), an ATP-gated ion channel that plays a crucial role in inflammasome activation, cytokine release, and cell death. GW791343 acts as a negative allosteric modulator, meaning it binds to a site distinct from the ATP-binding orthosteric site and inhibits receptor function in a non-competitive manner. It exhibits species-specific activity, acting as a NAM on the human P2X7 receptor with a pIC50 of 6.9-7.2, while showing different or no activity on P2X7 receptors from other species. This selectivity makes it a valuable tool for studying human P2X7 receptor biology.
ln Vitro
GW791343 trihydrochloride (0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10 µM; 40 min) has antagonistic action that is non-competitive towards the human P2X7 receptor[1]. The human P2X7 receptor exhibits an anegative allosteric modulator activity in response to GW791343 trihydrochloride (3, 10, 30 µM; 40 min)[1]. The ATP rhythm in SCN cells is improved by GW791343 trihydrochloride (5 µM; 24-48 h; ATP measured every 4 h)[2].
In vitro, GW791343 trihydrochloride potently inhibits agonist-stimulated responses in cells expressing the human P2X7 receptor. In functional assays using HEK293 cells expressing recombinant human P2X7, the compound inhibits agonist-stimulated ethidium accumulation, a measure of P2X7-mediated pore formation, in both sucrose and NaCl buffers. The compound demonstrates its activity with a pIC50 range of 6.9-7.2. It has been shown to inhibit P2X7-mediated calcium influx and subsequent downstream signaling events. GW791343 trihydrochloride is typically tested at concentrations of 3, 10, and 30 µM with a 40-minute incubation period in cellular assays. It is soluble in DMSO and is used as a research tool to study P2X7 receptor function and pharmacology.
ln Vivo
In vivo, GW791343 trihydrochloride has been investigated for its potential in treating neurological disorders by modulating P2X7 receptor activity. Studies have shown that GW791343 trihydrochloride enhances circadian ATP release, suggesting a role in regulating biological rhythms. By acting as a negative allosteric modulator of the P2X7 receptor, it can potentially attenuate neuroinflammation and excitotoxicity in various disease models. The compound's ability to penetrate the central nervous system and modulate P2X7-dependent signaling pathways positions it as a valuable pharmacological tool for studying the therapeutic potential of P2X7 inhibition in conditions such as chronic pain, depression, and neurodegenerative diseases.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro binding and functional characterization of GW791343 trihydrochloride typically involves the use of HEK293 cells stably or transiently expressing recombinant human P2X7 receptors. For receptor binding studies, radioligand binding assays using [3H]- or [35S]-labeled ATP analogs can be performed to assess the compound's allosteric modulation of orthosteric ligand binding. Functional assays measure the inhibition of agonist-stimulated responses, such as ethidium accumulation or calcium influx. Cells are pre-incubated with the compound for 10-40 minutes prior to agonist stimulation, and the inhibition of the response is measured to determine the pIC50 value.

Cellular assays for GW791343 trihydrochloride are typically performed using HEK293 cells that have been transfected to express the human recombinant P2X7 receptor. The protocol involves pre-incubating cells with various concentrations of GW791343 (typically ranging from 3 to 30 µM) for approximately 10 minutes. Following this pre-incubation, cells are stimulated with a P2X7 receptor agonist (such as BzATP or ATP) in the presence of the compound for an additional 30 minutes. Functional readouts include the measurement of agonist-stimulated ethidium accumulation, calcium mobilization, or the release of cytokines like IL-1β or IL-18. The compound's inhibitory effect is quantified by comparing the response in treated cells versus control cells.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for GW791343 trihydrochloride typically involve the administration of the compound to rodent models of neurological or inflammatory diseases. The compound is often administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or oral gavage at doses determined from pharmacokinetic studies. Given its ability to enhance circadian ATP release, studies may investigate its effects on circadian rhythms by monitoring locomotor activity or clock gene expression. In models of neuroinflammation, endpoints such as cytokine levels in the brain, microglial activation, and behavioral outcomes (e.g., pain sensitivity, depressive-like behaviors) are assessed. The compound's ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier and modulate P2X7-dependent pathways in the central nervous system is a key focus of these studies.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for GW791343 trihydrochloride are not extensively detailed in the available literature. However, as a small molecule with a molecular weight of approximately 562.2 g/mol (free base), its properties are typical of allosteric modulators. The compound is supplied as a solid and is soluble in DMSO, indicating moderate lipophilicity that may facilitate oral absorption and central nervous system penetration. For research purposes, it is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for up to three years or in solution at -80°C for up to six months. Detailed parameters such as half-life, volume of distribution, and bioavailability are not publicly available and would need to be determined experimentally.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
There is no specific toxicity data reported for GW791343 trihydrochloride in the available literature. As a research chemical intended for laboratory use only, it should be handled with standard safety precautions, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and safety goggles. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use, and any potential toxicity would need to be assessed through formal toxicological studies if it were to be developed further. Researchers should consult the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for detailed safety and handling information.
