Scyllatoxin BiologicalActivity
| Description | Scyllatoxin (Leiurotoxin I) is a peptide toxin, it can be isolated from the venom of the scorpion (Leiurus quinquestriatus hebraeus). Scyllatoxin is a blocker of small-conductance KCa (SK) channel. Scyllatoxin enhances both norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (Epi) release in vivo[1]. |

| In Vitro | For scyllatoxin, the Arg6 and Arg13 are essential for binding to the Ca2+-activated K+ channel protein and for the functional effect of the toxin[1]. For scyllatoxin, His31 is important for the binding activity of the toxin and for the induction of contractions on taenia coli[1]. |
|---|
| In Vivo | Scyllatoxin (2 μM) increases basal Epi release, the nerve stimulation-induced Epi release and the exogenous acetylcholine (Ach)-induced catecholamine release by microdialysis technique to the left adrenal medulla of anesthetized adult male Wistar rats[2]. |
