Biological Activity

[Description]:

R121919 is a potent small-molecule CRF1 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 2 to 5 nM for the CRF1 receptor and over 1000-fold weaker activity at the CRF2 receptor, CRF-binding protein, or 70 other receptor types.

[Target]

Ki: 2 to 5 nM (CRF1)[1]


[In Vitro]

R121919 is a potent small-molecule CRF1 receptor antagonistwith high affinity for the CRF1 receptor (Ki=2–5 nM) and over 1000-fold weaker activity at the CRF2 receptor, CRF-binding protein, or 70 other receptor types[1].

[In Vivo]

R121919 reduces measures of both anxiety and depression in the depressed patients. R121919 dose dependently decreases adrenocorticopin hormone and corticosterone responses to restraint stress in rats. Peak plasma adrenocorticopin hormone and corticosterone concentrations at a dose of 10 mg/kg R121919 are 9 and 25%, respectively[1]. R121919 reduces levels of anxiety in mice with a steep dose-response curve. Molecules such as GR, MR, BAG-1 and AP-1 have been identified as some of the drug's intracellular targets[2].

[Animal admin]

Rats: For the restraint stress,R121919 is dissolved in an aqueous 70% (v/v) polyethylene glycol 400 solution, and serially diluted in this vehicle to the appropriate concentrations. The drug is injected i.v. in a volume of 1 mL/kg to Male Sprague-Dawley rats. For the defensive withdrawal experiments, R121919 solutions are made fresh the night before each experiment. R121919 is dissolved in a vehicle consisting of 5% (v/v) polyethoxylated castor oil[1]. Mice: R121919 is dissolved in an aqueous. The drug is administered orally (1 mL/100 g bodyweight) via a feeding tube to six to ten mice per group; the doses applied are 0.5, 1.0 and 5.0 mg/kg for the DBA/2NCRL mice and 1.0, 5.0, and 30 mg/kg for the DBA/2Ola strain; an additional (vehicle) group of mice receives water, while a further group of mice (untreated controls) are spared the aforementioned manipulations[2].
