Capsaicin Workflows for TRPV1 and KDM1A Research
2026-09-17
Capsaicin is a dual-purpose research probe: it activates TRPV1 in sensory models while also enabling mechanistic studies of KDM1A/LSD1 inhibition in cancer biology. This guide converts those activities into practical stock-preparation, assay-design, troubleshooting, and cross-model workflows.

Capsaicin as a Reversible KDM1A/LSD1 Inhibitor
2026-09-16
The reference study identified Capsaicin, the pungent vanillamide from peppers, as a direct and reversible inhibitor of lysine-specific demethylase 1A (KDM1A/LSD1). Its biochemical activity, FAD-competitive behavior, and effects on gastric cancer cell migration, invasion, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) establish a mechanistic link between a familiar sensory compound and histone methylation biology.

E-4031 for 3D hERG Electrophysiology
2026-09-15
E-4031 converts shell microelectrode arrays into a practical platform for linking hERG inhibition with three-dimensional repolarization, conduction, and arrhythmia-like activity. This workflow combines concentration-controlled pharmacology, field-potential mapping, and calcium corroboration to improve proarrhythmic substrate modeling in cardiac organoids.

CCK-8 Antagonism of Electroacupuncture Analgesia
2026-09-15
The 1986 reference study showed that central CCK-8 rapidly and dose-dependently counteracted electroacupuncture analgesia, while CCK-8 antiserum delayed or reversed electroacupuncture tolerance and morphine cross-tolerance. Its route-specific antagonist and antiserum experiments support a model in which prolonged electroacupuncture recruits endogenous CCK-8 as an anti-opioid signal rather than as a general regulator of nociception.
