“…Currently, some non-selective inhibitors are used to assist the understanding of its role in physiological and pathological conditions. These include: trivalent ions, such as Gd 3+ ((IC 50 ~1.4-2.5 μmol/L) and La 3 (IC 50 ~17 μmol/L) [22,62] , 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB) (IC 50 ~50 μmol/L) [63] , NDGA (nordihydroguaiaretic acid, IC 50 ~6.3 μmol/L) [64] , AA861 (IC 50 ~6.0 μmol/L) [64] , MK886 (IC 50 ~8.6 μmol/L) [64] and carvacrol (IC 50 ~307 μmol/L) [65] . Among these non-selective TRPM7 blockers, a group of 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors (5-LOX), NDGA, AA861, and MK886, showed potent effects on blocking TRPM7 whole-cell current in TRPM7 overexpressing HEK293 cells without affecting the TRPM7 protein expression [64] .…”
