QYNAD
QYNAD is an endogenous pentapeptide with the sequence Gln-Tyr-Asn-Ala-Asp (QYNAD in the international one letter code of amino acids), isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). Immune mediated inflammatory neurological disorders like MS and GBS are characterized by demyelination and axonal damage. QYNAD can reversibly block voltage-gated sodium channels in a concentration-dependent manner. The blocking mechanism is a shift of the steady state inactivation curve of the sodium channels to more negative potentials, as with many local anaesthetics. QYNAD was found to reach concentrations in the CSF of MS or GBS that could subsantially block neuronal sodium channels.
