EFFECTS OF AN ORALLY ACTIVE VASOPRESSIN V1 RECEPTOR ANTAGONIST
1993
SUMMARY
1. This paper reports on the in vitro and in vivo characteristics of a non-peptide vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist 1-{1-[4-(3-acetylaminopropoxy)benzoyl]-4-piperidyl}-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinone (OPC-21268).
2. OPC-21268 caused a concentration-dependent displacement of the selective V1 receptor antagonist radioligand, [125I]-[d(CH2)5, sarcosine7]AVP from vasopressin V1 receptors in rat liver and kidney membranes, inhibitory concentration of 50% (IC50) 4 ± 10-8, 0.3 mol/L liver and 1.5 ± 10-8, 0.2 mol/L kidney. OPC-21268 had little effect on the selective V2 antagonist radioligand [3H]desGly-NH29-d(CH2)5[d-Ileu2, Ileu4]AVP binding to V2 receptors in renal membranes (IC50 > 10-4 mol/L).
3. After oral administration to rats, OPC-21268 was an effective V1 antagonist to both liver and kidney V1 receptors, in a dose-dependent manner.
4. These studies confirm that OPC-21268 is a potent non-peptide, orally effective V1 vasopressin receptor antagonist.
