Biochem/physiol Actions

Netupitant is a brain-penetrant, orally active, potent and selective neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor (NK1R; Tachykinin receptor 1) antagonist (Ca+2 mobilization IC50 = 11.2 nM/hNK1 vs. >1 μM/rNK1 & hNK2/3; hNK1/2/3 Ki = 0.95 nM/1.6 μM/1.6 μM) that effectively blocks agonist GR73632-induced foot tapping in gerbils (ID50 = 0.5 mg/kg po 2h prior to 3 pmol/5 μL GR73632/gerbil icv). In addition to antiemetic efficacy against substance P-associated vomiting reflexes, netupitant is also reported to enhance the analgesic effects of electroacupuncture (EA) among humanized mice with sickle cell disease in response to pain in vivo (10 mg/kg/day, i.p.).

John A Rudd et al.
Frontiers in pharmacology, 7, 263-263 (2016-09-16)
Chemotherapy-induced acute and delayed emesis involves the activation of multiple pathways, with 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT; serotonin) playing a major role in the initial response. Substance P tachykinin NK1 receptor antagonists can reduce emesis induced by disparate emetic challenges and therefore have

Experimental brain research, 232(8), 2637-2644 (2014-06-28)
Current therapy for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting includes the use of both 5-HT3 and NK1 receptor antagonists. Acute emesis has largely been alleviated with the use of 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, while an improvement in preventing delayed emesis has been achieved

Introduction. Tachykinins potently contract the isolated urinary bladder from a number of animal species and play an important role in the regulation of the micturition reflex. On the guinea-pig isolated urinary bladder we examined the effects of a new potent
