DA-6886 monohydrochloride

Description

DA-6886 is a 5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 4 5-HT4 agonist. DA-6886 induces relaxation of the rat oesophagus preparation in a 5-HT4 receptor antagonist-sensitive manner. The evaluation of DA-6886 in CHO cells expressing hERG channels reveals that it inhibits hERG channel current with an pIC50 value of 4.3, indicating that the compound is 1000-fold more selective for the 5-HT4 receptor over hERG channels. DA-6886 can be used in the study of constipated irritable bowel syndrome.
