Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Umbellulone is an active constituent of the leaves of Umbellularia californica. Umbellulone stimulates the TRPA1 channel in a subset of peptidergic, nociceptive neurons, activating the trigeminovascular system via this mechanism[1]. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Umbellulone is a ketone. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
(-)-Umbellulone, isolated from the"headache tree" Umbellularia californica Nutt, is a selective activator of Transient Receptor Potential Anykrin 1 (TRPA1) channels. (-)-Umbellulone activates TRPA1 channels on nociceptive trigeminal afferents, resulting in release of CGRP and CGRP-mediated neurogenic vasodilatation, causing a painful cold sensation and headache/migraine. | [in vivo]
Umbellulone (50–250?nM/5ul) causes an acute nocioceptive response in a dose-dependent manner in Trpa1+/+ mice[1].
Umbellulone (150?μg/kg; intravenous or intranasal) do not affect systemic blood pressure[1].
Umbellulone (30-150 μg/kg; i.v.) increases meningeal blood flow in a dose-dependent manner[1].
Animal Model: | Sprague-Dawley rats (male, 250?g)[1] | Dosage: | 30 μg/kg, 75 μg/kg, 150 μg/kg | Administration: | Intravenously | Result: | Increased meningeal blood flow in a dose-dependent manner. |
