X-ray structural characterization of SR 142948, a novel potent synthetic neurotensin receptor antagonist.

SR 142948 is an original and extremely potent neurotensin receptor antagonist developed in a promising approach to novel antipsychotic drugs. The X-ray structure was elucidated and compared to SR 48692 and levocabastine, providing new informations about the possible recognition process of NT receptor subtypes.

Characterization of binding sites of a new neurotensin receptor antagonist, [3H]SR 142948A, in the rat brain.

The present study describes the characterization of the binding properties and autoradiographic distribution of a new nonpeptide antagonist of neurotensin receptors, [3H]SR 142948A (2-[[5-(2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-(4-(N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-methyl carbamoyl)-2-isopropylphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carbonyl]-amino]-ad amantane-2-carboxylic acid, hydrochloride), in the rat brain. The binding of [3H]SR 142948A in brain membrane homogenates was specific, time-dependent, reversible and saturable. [3H]SR 142948A bound to an apparently homogeneous population of sites, with a Kd of 3.

Biochemical and pharmacological activities of SR 142948A, a new potent neurotensin receptor antagonist.

SR 142948A, 2-[[5-(2,6-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-(4-(N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-methylc arbamoyl)-2-isopropylphenyl)-1H-pyrazole3-carbonyl]amino] adamantane-2-carboxylic acid, hydrochloride, a new and extremely potent neurotensin (NT) receptor antagonist, has been characterized in comparison with SR 48692. This selective compound possesses nanomolar affinities for NT receptors, recognizes the two binding sites described for the NT receptor and fully displaces [3H]SR 48692 specific binding. SR 142948A antagonizes the classical in vitro NT effects, i.

Biochemical and pharmacological properties of SR 46349B, a new potent and selective 5-hydroxytryptamine2 receptor antagonist.

A new potent, selective and p.o. active serotonergic [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT2)] receptor antagonist, SR 46349B [trans, 4-([3Z)3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)oxyimino-3(2-flurophenyl++ +)propen-1-yl]phenol hemifumarate) has been characterized by a series of "in vitro" and "in vivo" methods.
