Product Data
Biological target:
Devazepide (L-364,718) is a potent, competitive, selective and orally active nonpeptide antagonist of cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor, with IC50s of 81 pM, 45 pM and 245 nM for rat pancreatic, bovine gallbladder and guinea pig brain CCK receptors, respectively.
In vitro activity:
The proliferation of 5637 cells was significantly inhibited (P<0.001) after incubation with 12, 25, and 50 µM devazepide for 48 and 72 h. A treatment of 25 µM devazepide for 48 h induced G1-S cell cycle arrest and apoptosis (P<0.01), and inhibited cell migration (P<0.05). By western blot assay, it was found that devazepide can down-regulate CyclinD1 expression, and up-regulate Bax, PARP1, and Cleaved Caspase-3 expression.

In vivo activity:
The aim of the study was to determine if CCK plays a role in sleep responses to feeding. After the starvation period, sleep was recorded on 2 refeeding days when the control rats (n = 8) were injected with vehicle and the experimental animals (n = 8) received intraperitoneal injections of L-364,718 (500 microg/kg, on both refeeding days). In the control group, refeeding caused increases in rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) and non-REMS (NREMS) and decreases in NREMS intensity as indicated by the slow-wave activity (SWA) of the electroencephalogram. CCK-A receptor antagonist treatment completely prevented the SWA responses and delayed the NREMS responses to refeeding; REMS responses were not simply abolished, but the amount of REMS was below baseline after the antagonist treatment. These results suggest that endogenous CCK, acting on CCK-A receptors, may play a key role in eliciting postprandial sleep.
