Neurokinin B TFA, a member of the tachykinin family, binds to a series of GPCRs, including neurokinin receptors 1 (NK1R), NK2R, and NK3R, to modulate their biological effects.
Neurokinin B (NKB) belongs in the family of tachykinin peptides. Neurokinin B is implicated in a variety of human functions and pathways such as the secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone.
GSK256471 is a potent selective NK(3) antagonist that shows a high affinity for recombinant human (PK (I) value 8.9) and native guinea pig (PK (I) value 8.4) tachykinin NK(3) receptors. In vitro functional assessment showed that GSK256471 reduced the E(Ma
Benzomalvin B is a fungal metabolite originally isolated from Penicillium. It acts as an antagonist of neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptors, inhibiting binding of substance P by 24% in vitro when used at a concentration of 100 μg/ml.
Benzomalvin C is a weak antagonist of the neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor inhibiting binding of substance P by 46% when used at 100 μg/ml in vitro. It is also a weak inhibitor of indolamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) with an IC50 value of 130 μM for recombinant IDO. It was isolated from Penicillium and contains an epoxide group at C-19 and C-20, which is not present in benzomalvins A, B, or E.
