Description
CGP-37157 (75450-34-9) inhibits?the mitochondrial Na+-Ca2+?exchanger (NCX) in isolated heart mitochondria, IC50=0.36 μM.1?Does not inhibit the plasmalemmal NCX.2? Also inhibits voltage-gated Ca2+?channels in intact cells and therefore its use in cellular studies must employ adequate controls.3? Prevents sudden death in a Guinea pig model of heart failure.4?Displays pronounced cytoprotective effects in chromaffin cells5?and in neuronal injury models.6?Blood-brain barrier permeant.
Uses
7-Chloro-5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,5-dihydro-4,1-benzothiazepin-2(3H)-one is a specific inhibitor of the mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger.
Uses
CGP-37157 has been used as a mitochondrial sodium-calcium exchanger (mNCX) inhibitor to study the role of normal mitochondrial calcium dynamics in sustaining dendritic spinogenesis.
Definition
ChEBI: 7-chloro-5-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,5-dihydro-4,1-benzothiazepin-2-one is a benzothiazepine.
General Description
CGP-37157 is a benzothiazepine compound, which is derived from clonazepam. It functions as a sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) antagonist and ryanodine receptor channels (RyR) agonist. CGP-37157 regulates intracellular signaling of calcium in smooth, cardiac and skeletal muscle cells and non-muscle systems.
Biological Activity
Selective antagonist of the mitochondrial Na + -Ca 2+ exchanger (IC 50 = 0.4 μ M).
Biochem/physiol Actions
Specific inhibitor of mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchange as well as sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-stimulated ATPase and possibly other calcium channels.
