Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

PD 168368 is a competitive antagonist of neuromedin B (NMB) receptors (Kis = 15-45 nM for rat and human receptors expressed in various cell lines). It blocks the elevation of intracellular calcium and release of inositol phosphate induced by NMB in cells expressing NMB receptors.

Product Data
Biological target:
PD 168368 is a potent, competitive, and selective neuromedin B receptor (NMB-R) antagonist with the Ki of 15–45 nM.
In vitro activity:
The present study found that NMB and its receptor NMBR are aberrantly expressed in cervical cancer. NMB activates ERK1/2 and NF-κB signaling pathways, which promote the proliferation of cervical cancer cells and increase the expression of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). The downregulation of NMBR by the specific inhibitor, PD168368, abrogates proliferation and promotes apoptosis of cervical cancer cells. Reference: Pathol Res Pract. 2022 Sep 6;238:154104. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36095918/
In vivo activity:
As shown in Fig. 4D, the aortas of CKD rats had extensive calcification as compared with those from the sham rats. This was significantly alleviated in the aortas of the animals from PD168368-treated CKD group, resulting in reduced deposition of calcium as well as a small ratio of calcified area. The serum level of NMB was also increased in CKD rats compared with sham rats, which was restored to normal levels by PD 168368 treatment (Fig. 4E). Finally, western blotting demonstrated that PD168368 treatment blocked the osteogenic conversion and apoptosis in the aorta of CKD rats (Fig. 4F).
