Reported herein is the design, synthesis, and pharmacologic characterization of a class of TRPV1 antagonists constructed on a phenylquinoline platform that evolved from Cinchophen lead. This design composes three sections: a phenylquinoline headgroup attached to an aliphatic carboxamides, which is tethered at a phenyl tail group. Optimization of this design led to the identification of 37, comprising a pyrrolidine linker and a trifluoromethyl-phenyl tail. In the TRPV1 functional assay, using cells expressed hTRPV1, 37 antagonized capsaicin-induced Ca influx, with an IC value of 10.2 nM. In the complete mice analgesic model, 37 exhibited better antinociceptive activity than the positive control BCTC in diverse pain models. All of these results suggested that 37 could be considered as a lead candidate for the further development of antinociceptive drugs.

Heteroleptic Pt complexes comprising π-extended dipyrrins and 2-phenylquinoline were prepared. Single-crystal X-ray analysis disclosed the stepped conformations of two ligand moieties in these Pt complexes. The enantiomers could be separated by HPLC and their configurations were determined from CD spectroscopy results and TD-DFT calculations.

A series of monocationic iridium(III) complexes, [Ir(C^N)(pqu)]PF [pqu = 2-(pyridin-2-yl)quinoline, C^N = 2-phenylquinoline (1), 3-phenylisoquinoline (2), 1-phenylisoquinoline (3), benzo[ h]quinoline (4), 2-(pyridin-2-yl)naphthalene (5), 1-(pyridin-2-yl)naphthalene (6), 2-(phenanthren-9-yl)pyridine (7), 2-phenylbenzo[ g]quinoline (8), 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)quinoline (9), and 2-(naphthalen-2-yl)benzo[ g]quinoline (10)], were synthesized in this work. These complexes bear C^N ligands with varied degrees of π conjugation and sites of benzannulation, allowing for elucidation of the effects of the benzannulation site at the C^N ligand on the photophysics of the complexes. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption and emission of the complexes were systematically investigated via spectroscopic techniques and time-dependent density functional theory calculations.

The intrinsic primary afferent neurons (IPANs) of the guinea pig enteric nervous system express Na(v)1.9 sodium channels that produce a persistent TTX-resistant current having a low activation threshold and slow gating kinetics. These neurons receive slow EPSPs induced mainly by the activation of neurokinin 3 receptors (NK3r).

Tachykinins, acting through NK(3) receptors (NK(3)R), contribute to excitatory transmission to intrinsic primary afferent neurons (IPANs) of the small intestine. Although this transmission is dependent on protein kinase C (PKC), its maintenance could depend on protein kinase D (PKD), a downstream target of PKC. Here we show that PKD1/2-immunoreactivity occurred exclusively in IPANs of the guinea pig ileum, demonstrated by double staining with the IPAN marker NeuN.
