Description

Delta-philanthotoxin is a neurotoxin isolated from the venom of the solitary digger wasp, Philanthus triangulum. It acts as a potent and selective blocker of voltage-gated sodium channels, specifically inhibiting the inactivation of these channels. This unique mechanism of action has made delta-philanthotoxin a valuable tool in studying neuronal excitability, particularly in the context of pain perception and nerve conduction. Research on delta-philanthotoxin has led to insights into the structure-activity relationship of sodium channels, contributing to the development of new therapeutic agents for pain management and other neurological conditions.'
