Abstract: | (S)1- {;2-3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(3-isopropoxyphenylacetyl)piperidin-3-yl]ethyl };-4-phenyl-1-azoniabicyclo2.2.2]octane chloride (SR140333) is a new non-peptide antagonist of tachykinin NK1 receptors. SR140333 potently, selectively and competitively inhibited substance P binding to NK1 receptors from various animal species, including humans. In vitro, it was a potent antagonist in functional assays for NK1 receptors such as Sar9,Met(O2)11]substance P-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation of rabbit pulmonary artery and contraction of guinea-pig ileum. Up to 1 μM, it had no effect in bioassays for NK2 (βAla8]neurokinin A-induced contraction of endothelium-deprived rabbit pulmonary artery) and NK3 (MePhe7]neurokinin B-induced contraction of rat portal vein) receptors. The antagonism exerted by SR140333 toward NK1 receptors was apparently non-competitive, with pD'2 values (antagonism potency evaluated by the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of antagonist that produces a 50% reduction of the maximal response to the agonist) between 9.65 and 10.16 in the different assays. SR140333 also blocked in vitro Sar9,Met(O2)11]substance P-induced release of acetylcholine from rat striatum. In vivo, SR140333 exerted highly potent antagonism toward Sar9,Met(O211]substance P-induced hypotension in dogs (ED50 = 3 μg/kg i.v., bronchoconstriction in guinea-pig (ED50 = 42 μg/kg i.v.) and plasma extravasation in rats (ED50 = 7 μg/kg i.v.). Finally, it also blocked the activation of rat thalamic neurons after nociceptive stimulation (ED = 0.2 μg/kg i.v.). |
