Product Data:
Biological target: ML 154 is a potent neuropeptide S receptor (NPSR) antagonist (pA2 = 9.98).
In vitro activity: NCGC84 inhibited NPS-induced ERK phosphorylation in a concentration-dependent manner, and the resulting IC50 value, 9.3 nm, is 2.3- and 3.9-fold more potent than the cAMP and intracellular calcium response, respectively (Fig. 5A). The inhibition of NPS-induced ERK phosphorylation by NCGC84 was confirmed by Western blot analysis (Fig. 5B). Reference: J Neurosci. 2013 Jun 12;33(24):10132-42. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23761908/
In vivo activity: In vivo, systemic NCGC00185684 blocks alcohol-induced ERK-phosphorylation in the rat central amygdala, a region involved in regulation of alcohol intake. NCGC00185684 also decreases operant alcohol self-administration, and lowers motivation for alcohol reward as measured using progressive ratio responding.
