Description:

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

SB-204741 is an antagonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT2B. It inhibits 5-HT-induced contraction of isolated rat stomach fundus, a tissue that endogenously expresses high levels of 5-HT2B receptors (pA2 = 7.95). SB-204741 is selective for 5-HT2B receptors over 5-HT1A, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT3, 5-HT4, dopamine D1-3, histamine H1, α1- and α2-adrenergic, and GABAA receptors (Kis = 1-100 µM). In vivo, SB-204741 (1 mg/kg per day) prevents the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and reduces vascular stiffness in a Bmpr2 mutant mouse model of hereditary PAH. It also reduces blood pressure in DOCA-salt hypertensive rats.

Product Data
Biological target:
SB 204741 is a selective and high affinity 5-HT2B antagonist with a pKi value of 7.1.
In vitro activity:
SB 204741 effectively counteracted the enhanced tension development in the umbilical artery of preeclamptic pregnancies, contributing to its potential role in regulating vascular responses. Reference: Eur J Pharmacol. 2009 Mar 1;605(1-3):129-37. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19248248/
In vivo activity:
SB 204741 has potential in mitigating myocardial damage through multifaceted mechanisms. In a rat model of isoproterenol-induced myocardial remodeling, SB 204741 improved hemodynamic and ventricular functions. There were reductions in the expression of proteins associated with inflammation, stress kinases, and apoptotic factors, along with an increase in proteins related to heat shock response, autophagy, and cell survival. Reference: Apoptosis. 2015 Apr;20(4):455-65. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25544272/
