| Targets |
The primary target of tKIM is the TREK-1 potassium channel, a member of the two-pore domain potassium (K2P) channel family. tKIM binds to the pocket of the intermediate (IM) state of TREK-1, which is distinct from the binding site of common inhibitors that bind to channels in the inactive state. This unique binding mode suggests that tKIM is an allosteric inhibitor. With an IC50 of 2.96 μM, tKIM is a potent inhibitor of TREK-1 and serves as a valuable tool for studying the structure and function of this channel.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, tKIM inhibits TREK-1 channel activity with an IC50 of 2.96 μM. The compound binds to the pocket of the intermediate (IM) state of TREK-1. This unique binding mode distinguishes tKIM from other TREK-1 inhibitors. tKIM is typically used in electrophysiological studies to examine channel function and is a valuable tool for studying the role of TREK-1 in neuronal excitability. It is soluble in DMSO at 30 mg/mL (80.68 mM) with sonication and is available with a purity of 99.47%.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, tKIM has potential applications in the study of neurological disorders where TREK-1 channels play a role. However, detailed in vivo efficacy and safety data are not extensively reported in the available literature, and its use is primarily limited to preclinical research settings. The identification of an allosteric ligand-binding site and a new mechanistic inhibitor for TREK-1 suggests that intermediate states of ion channels may be promising druggable targets for use in discovering allosteric modulators.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for tKIM typically involve measuring its inhibition of TREK-1 channel activity using electrophysiological techniques such as patch-clamp recording in cell lines expressing recombinant TREK-1 channels. The compound is applied to the cells at varying concentrations (typically 0.1-100 µM), and the resulting inhibition of potassium current is measured. The IC50 value of 2.96 μM is determined by fitting concentration-response curves. The unique binding mechanism of tKIM to the intermediate state of TREK-1 can be studied using structural biology techniques such as X-ray crystallography or cryo-electron microscopy.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for tKIM typically use cell lines expressing recombinant TREK-1 channels, such as CHO or HEK293 cells. The compound is applied to the cells, and its effects on channel activity are assessed using electrophysiological techniques such as patch-clamp recording. Fluorescent-based membrane potential assays using voltage-sensitive dyes can also be used for higher-throughput screening of channel activity. Cells are treated with tKIM at various concentrations (e.g., 0.1-100 µM), and the changes in membrane potential are measured. The IC50 for channel inhibition is determined from the concentration-response data.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for tKIM would likely involve the administration of the compound to rodent models to study its effects on neuronal excitability and neurological function. The compound could be administered via intraperitoneal injection or oral gavage, depending on its bioavailability. Endpoints would depend on the specific research question and could include behavioral tests, electrophysiological recordings, or measurements of physiological parameters. However, specific in vivo study protocols for tKIM are not detailed in the available literature.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for tKIM are not extensively reported in the available literature. The compound has a molecular weight of 371.84 g/mol and is soluble in DMSO at 30 mg/mL. It is a white solid with a purity of 99.47%. For research purposes, the compound is typically stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or in solution at -80°C for up to 1 year. 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 tKIM in the available literature. As a research chemical intended for laboratory use only, it should be handled with standard safety precautions for handling chemical reagents. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic use. Researchers should consult the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for detailed safety and handling information. Any potential toxicity would need to be assessed through formal toxicological studies if the compound were to be developed further.
