Optovin is a TRPA1 ligand that can be reversibly photoactivated by violet (405 nm) light.{33656} Optovin-treated zebrafish respond to light with vigorous motor excitation (EC50 = 2 µM).{33656} Optovin-treated mouse dorsal root ganglia neurons displayed increased intracellular calcium following stimulation with light but only in wild-type TRPA1 cells.{33656} Optovin has been used to study the role of TRPA1 in the response of cardiac myocytes to reperfusion injury.{33657}
