General description

JMV 2959, which blocks the signaling of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1A, reduces the deficits in prepulse inhibition induced by the NMDAR antagonist, phencyclidine.

Application

Ghrelin Receptor Antagonist, JMV 2959 has been used to examine oxytocin receptor (OTR) and ghrelin receptor (GHSR) signaling. It has also been used as a GHS-R1a receptor antagonist to pretreat Hek cells followed by pyridone 8 exposure to study its effect on GHS-R1a receptor-mediated calcium influx.
