Biological Activity
CGP71683 hydrochloride is a competitive neuropeptide Y5 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 1.3 nM, and shows no obvious activity at Y1 receptor (Ki, >4000 nM) and Y2 receptor (Ki, 200 nM) in cell membranes.
In Vitro
CGP71683 hydrochloride is a competitive neuropeptide Y5 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 1.3 nM, and shows no obvious activity at Y1 receptor (Ki, >4000 nM) and Y2 receptor (Ki, 200 nM) in cell membranes[1].
In Vivo
CGP71683 (15 nmol/rat, icv, twice daily) shows anorexigenic effect, reducing food intake and bady weight of fed rats. CGP71683 causes 3-times higher serum total T4 and 37% increase in free T4 in the fasted rats than in the fasted controls rats[2].
