human α1a receptor

RS102895 hydrochloride is a potent antagonist of CCR2(IC50 of 360 nM).

Fiduxosin is a selective and potent α1-adrenoceptor antagonist with inhibitory effects on α1a-adrenoceptor, α1b-adrenoceptor and α1d-adrenoceptor, with Ki values of 0.160 nM, 24.9 nM and 0.920 nM, respectively. Fiduxosin can be used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

DREADD agonist 21 is a potent agonist of human muscarinic acetylcholine M3 receptors (EC50=1.7 nM).

Rec 15/2615 is an antagonist of α1B-adrenergic receptors (α1B-ARs; Ki = 0.45 nM for the recombinant human receptor).1 It selectively inhibits α1B-ARs over α1A-, α1D-, and α1L-ARs (Kis = 7.59, 10.23, and 49 nM, respectively). Rec 15/2615 inhibits norepinephrine-induced contractions of isolated rabbit prostate and urethral strips (Kis = 100 and 316.2 nM, respectively), as well as reduces norepinephrine-induced contractions of chloroethylclonidine-precontracted isolated rabbit aortic rings (Ki = 50 nM).2 It decreases diastolic blood pressure (ED25 = 183 μg/kg, i.v.) and increases intracavernous pressure in anesthetized dogs when administered intracavernously at doses ranging from 30 and 1,000 μg/kg.1,2 |1.

RS 504393 is a highly selective CCR2 chemokine receptor antagonist (IC50s: 89 nM and > 100 μM for human recombinant CCR2 and CCR1).

Conopeptide rho-TIA, a peptide from Conus tulipa venom, acts as a selective, noncompetitive inhibitor at the human α1B-Adrenergic Receptor and as a competitive inhibitor at the α1A and α1D-Adrenergic Receptors. Binding to these subtypes, conopeptide rho-TIA may inform the creation of new α1-Adrenergic Receptor subtype-selective drugs [1].
