| Name | TTA-A2 |
| Description | TTA-A2 is a selective T-type calcium channel antagonist as a potent anticonvulsant that the Cav3.1 isoform plays a prominent role in mediating. TTA-A2 is equally potent against the Cav3.1 (a1G) and Cav3.2 (a1H) channels with IC50 values of 89 nM and 92 nM, respectively, at -80 and -100 mV holding potentials. TTA-A2 can be used for the research of a variety of human neurological diseases, including sleep disorders and epilepsy. |
| In vivo | TTA-A2 (oral gavage; 10 mg/kg; once daily; 5 days) shows selective effect on recurrent thalamocortical network activity, it suppresses active wake and promotes slow-wave sleep in wild-type mice but not in mice lacking both Cav3.1 and Cav3.3[1].TTA-A2 (oral gavage;?3 mg/kg;?single dose) produces significant changes in sleep architecture in rats.?A reduction in active wake soon after dosing with a concurrent increase in delta sleep and decrease in REM sleep.?Additionally, these effects persists for up to 4 h post-dose in rats[2]. |
