Storage & Solubility Information
Description Gefapixant (AF219) is a P2X3 receptor (P2X3R) antagonist with IC50 of ~30 nM at recombinant hP2X3 homotrimers and 100-250 nM at hP2X2/3 heterotrimeric receptors.
Targets&IC50 P2X2/3 heterotrimeric receptors (human):100-250 nM, Recombinant hP2X3 homotrimers:~30 nM
In vitro The IC50 of Gefapixant has been reported as ~30 nM versus recombinant hP2X3 homotrimers and 100-250 nM at hP2X2/3 heterotrimeric receptors, potencies very similar to those reported for recombinant rat receptors, and it displays no inhibitory impact on any non-P2X3 subunit-containing receptors (IC50 values>>10,000 nM at recombinant homotrimeric hP2X1, hP2X2, hP2X4, rP2X5, and hP2X7 channels).
In vivo In a rat model for knee osteoarthritis (developed 14 days after the intra-articular injection of monoiodoacetate), oral administration of Gefapixant twice daily for seven days resulted in a significant attenuation of weight bearing asymmetry, with a full reversal of observable hyperalgesia at the two higher doses [2].
Animal Research A rodent model often employs for assessing the potential for drug effect in osteoarthritis (OA) pain is based on the intraarticular injection of monoiodoacetate (mIOA) into one knee joint of the rat. To measure the effect of Gefapixant on the weight bearing laterality and apparent hyperalgesia, Gefapixant is given by intraplantar or oral administration to the rats, with different concentrations (6, 20, and 60 mg/kg) two times a day and continues up to a week[2].

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box

Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
