Optovin is an activator of TRPA1 [1].
Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily A, member 1 (TRPA1) is an ion channel that involved in signal transduction and growth control. TRPA1 signaling plays an important role in chronic inflammation and neuropathic pain [1].
Optovin is a photoactivator of TRPA1. In dorsal root ganglia (DRG) sensory neurons isolated from mice, optovin significantly activated 33% (35/105) of DRG neurons, which was not occured in the dark. In HEK293T cells transfected with the human TRPA1, optovin activated cells. Optovin activated TRPA1 channels through a photoactivated intermediate that reacted with redox-sensitive cysteine residues in the channel [1].
In wild-type zebrafish embryos, optovin increased light-dependent motor activity with EC50 value of 2 μM. Optovin induced zebrafish respond to 387-nm light stimuli. Optovin acted on sensory neurons and was not dependent on visual pathways for the increase of light-dependent motor activity. In zebrafish with trpa1b mutant, optovin didn’t have effect, which suggested trpa1b is necessary for optovin activity. In adult mice, optovin induced head-shaking behaviors [1].

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |

Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
