Popis: The rational design of a non-peptide tachykinin NK 1 receptor antagonist, [(2-benzofuran)-CH 2 OCO]-( R )-α-MeTrp-( S )-NHCH(CH 3 )Ph ( 28 , PD 154075) is described. Compound 28 has a K i = 9 and 0.35 nM for the NK 1 receptor binding site in guinea-pig cerebral cortex membranes and human IM9, cells respectively (using [ 125 I] Bolton-Hunter-SP as the radioligand). It is a potent antagonist in vitro where it antagonises the contractions mediated by SPOMe in the guinea-pig ileum (K B = 0 3 nM). Compound 28 is active in vivo in the guinea-pig plasma extravasation model, where it is able to block the SPOMe-induced protein plasma extravasation (monitored by Evans Blue) in the bladder with an ID 50 of 0.02 mg kg −1 iv.
