Uses
SC 19220 is a selective EP1?receptor antagonist.
Uses
SC 19220 was used to study the role of prostaglandin E
2 in oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced neurotoxicity and preconditioning-induced neuroprotection in rat cortical cultures.
Definition
ChEBI: N'-acetyl-3-chloro-6H-benzo[b][1,4]benzoxazepine-5-carbohydrazide is an aromatic ether.
Biological Activity
Selective EP 1 receptor antagonist (IC 50 = 6.7 μ M for inhibition of [ 3 H]-PGE 2 binding to EP 1 transfected COS cells).
Biochem/physiol Actions
SC 19220 is a competitive antagonist of prostaglandin E receptors. It competes with PGE2 in regulating vesicourethral motility and increases the bladder capacity of rats. It inhibits the contraction of smooth muscles in response to prostaglandins E2 and F2α. SC 19220 also inhibits the formation of osteoclasts induced by vitamin D3, parathyroid hormone, IL-11 and IL-6.
