µ-Conotoxin CnIIIC, a 22-residue conopeptide from Conus consors belonging to µ-conopeptide family, is a very potent, selective and durable antagonist of NaV channels. This toxin blocks both voltage-gated Na+ channels and neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). µ-Conotoxin CnIIIC inhibits the rat skeletal muscle NaV1.4 with IC50 of 1.3 nM and the rat brain NaV1.2 expressed in HEK-293 cells. A low inhibition is also observed for mouse neuronal NaV1.6 and mouse NaV1.7. µ-Conotoxin CnIIIC modestly blocks nAChR α3/β2 subtype with IC50 values of 450 nM (partially reversible) and, to a lesser extent, α7 and α4/β2 subtypes (reversible) expressed in Xenopus oocytes. in vitro, it decreases twitch tension in mouse hemidiaphragms (IC50 = 150 nM) and displays a high blocking effect in mouse extensor digitorum longus muscles (IC50 = 46 nM).
