CGP-42112(CGP-42112A) is a potent Angiotensin-II subtype 2 receptor(AT2 R) agonist.IC50 value:Target: AT2 R agonistin vitro: CGP42112 (>==1 nM) significantly inhibited cGMP production from the basal value. CGP42112 (>==1 nM) significantly inhibited TH-enzyme activity from the basal value. These inhibitory effects of CGP42112 on TH-enzyme activity and-cGMP production were abolished by PD123319 (AT(2)-R antagonist) while CV-11974 (AT(1)-R antagonist) was ineffective [1]. [125I]CGP 42112 bound selectively to the AT2 angiotensin II receptor subtype. [125I]CGP 42112 bound with higher affinity in the brain than in the adrenal. beta-Mercaptoethanol enhanced [125I]CGP 42112 binding in the brain, but did not alter its binding in the adrenal [2]. [125I]CGP 42112 bound with high affinity (Kd = 0.07-0.3 nM, depending on the area studied). [125I]CGP 42112 binding was selective for AT2 receptors, as determined by lack of competition with the AT1 ligand losartan, and competition by the AT2 ligands PD 123177 and unlabeled CGP 42112 and the non-selective peptides Ang II and angiotensin III (Ang III) [4].in vivo: Intravenous infusions of CGP 42112 (0.1 and 1 mg kg-1 min-1) and PD 123319 (0.36 and 1 mg kg-1 min-1) shifted the upper limit of CBF autoregulation toward higher blood pressures without affecting baseline CBF [3].

Moxonidine(BDF5895) is a selective agonist at the imidazoline receptor subtype 1, used as antihypertensive agent.Target: I1-RMoxonidine is a centrally acting antihypertensive agent. Mixed Nischarin (I1 imidazoline receptor) and α2-AR (adrenergic) agonist; displays 40-fold higher affinity for I1 receptors versus α2-adrenoceptors. Moxonidine reduced stimulated NE overflow (log EC50: -6.15 +/- 0.14). AGN192403, a selective ligand at I1-R, had no influence on the dose-response curve of moxonidine (log EC50: -6.01 +/- 0.25) [1]. The hypotensive and bradycardic actions of moxonidine but not clonidine are mediated through imidazoline receptors and are dependent on intact noradrenergic pathways within the RVLM. Furthermore, the noradrenergic innervation may be associated with a 42 kDa imidazoline receptor protein [2].

Piracetam is a cyclic derivative of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), used in treatment of a wide range of cognitive disorders.Target: OthersPiracetam is able to significantly decrease the fusogenic and destabilising effect of Abeta 29-42, in a concentration-dependent manner. Preincubation of piracetam, at a piracetam/peptide ratio of 960, during 20 min before the addition of Abeta 29-42 prevents almost completely the mixture of the two fluorescent probes. Preincubation of piracetam with lipids prevents almost completely the release of calcein induced by the peptide in a dose-dependent fashion (piracetam/peptide ratios from 9.6 to 960) [1]. Piracetam (< 1.0 mM) preincubated with brain membranes enhances membrane fluidity in aged mice, rats and humans, as indicated by decreased anisotropy of the membrane-bound fluorescence probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). Piracetam (300 mg/kg once daily) significantly increases membrane fluidity in some brain regions of young and aged rats, but has no measurable effect on membrane fluidity in the young rats [2]. Piracetam (300 mg/kg daily for 6 weeks) improves active avoidance learning in the aged rats only and elevates membrane fluidity in all brain regions except the cerebellum in the aged rats. Piracetam (300 mg/kg daily for 6 weeks) also improves NMDA receptor density in the hippocampus and on muscarinic cholinergic receptor densities in the frontal cortex and the striatum and to a lesser extent in the hippocampus of rats [3].

Orphenadrine citrate is a NMDA receptor antagonist with Ki of 6.0 +/- 0.7 μM, HERG potassium channel blocker.Target: NMDA ReceptorOrphenadrine has been used as an antiparkinsonian, antispastic and analgesic drug. Orphenadrine inhibits [3H]MK-801 binding to the phencyclidine (PCP) binding site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-receptor in homogenates of postmortem human frontal cortex with a Ki-value of 6.0 +/- 0.7 microM. The NMDA receptor antagonistic effects of orphenadrine were assessed using concentration- and patch-clamp techniques on cultured superior colliculus neurones. Orphenadrine blocked open NMDA receptor channels with fast kinetics and in a strongly voltage-dependent manner. The IC50-value against steady state currents at -70 mV was 16.2 +/- 1.6 microM (n = 6). Orphenadrine exhibited relatively fast, concentration-dependent open channel blocking kinetics (Kon 0.013 +/- 0.002 10(6) M-1S-1) whereas the offset rate was concentration-independent (Koff 0.230 +/- 0.004 S-1) [1]. Orphenadrine competitively inhibited [3H]nisoxetine binding in rat vas deferens membranes (Ki = 1.05+/-0.20 microM). It can be concluded that orphenadrine, at low micromolar concentrations, interacts with the noradrenaline reuptake system inhibiting its functionality and thus potentiating the effect of noradrenaline [2].
JDTic is a highly selective antagonist for the κ-opioid receptor; without affecting the μ- or δ-opioid receptors. IC50 value:Target: κ-opioid receptorJDTic is a 4-phenylpiperidine derivative, distantly structurally related to analgesic drugs such as meperidine and ketobemidone, and more closely to the mu opioid antagonist alvimopan, and is structurally distinct from other kappa antagonists such as norbinaltorphimine. JDTic has a very long duration of action, with effects in animals seen for up to several weeks after administration of a single dose, although its binding to the kappa opioid receptor is not irreversible and its long-acting effects are instead caused by altered activity of c-Jun N-terminal kinases. Animal studies suggest that it may produce antidepressant and anxiolytic effects, as well as having possible application in the treatment of addiction to cocaine and morphine.
Tecadenoson (CVT-510) is a selective A1 adenosine receptor agonist.
Vasopressin is a cyclic nonapeptide that is synthesized centrally in the hypothalamus. Vasopressin participates in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and regulates pituitary corticotropin secretion by potentiating the stimulatory effects of corticotropin releasing factor. Vasopressin also can act as a neurotransmitter, exerting its action by binding to specific G protein-coupled receptors[1][2][3].
Lofepramine-d3 (Lopramine-d3) is the deuterium labeled Lofepramine. Lofepramine (Lopramine) is a potent tricyclic antidepressant and is extensively metabolised to Desipramine. The antidepressant activity of Lofepramine stems from the facilitation of noradrenergic neurotransmission by uptake inhibition. Lofepramine may also potentiate serotoninergic neurotransmission by inhibition of the neuronal uptake of serotonin and the enzyme tryptophan pyrrolase. Lofepramine has significant anxiolytic efficacy in addition to its antidepressant properties[1].
