    Abstract:
    The new calmodulin antagonist, CGS-9343B, was found to inhibit both histamine plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine and carbachol-induced [14C]aminopyrine accumulation in dispersed, fundic mucosal cells of rats. The IC50 value for CGS-9343B inhibition of histamine plus 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine-induced [14C]aminopyrine accumulation was 306 nM. The drug was more potent than the H2-histamine receptor antagonist, cimetidine (1128 nM), less potent than the nonspecific calmodulin antagonists, trifluoperazine and fenoctimine (IC50 = 40 and 224 nM, respectively), and equipotent with the H+, K+-adenosine triphosphatase inhibitor, omeprazole (365 nM). CGS-9343B showed an IC50 of 369 nM for carbachol-induced [14C]aminopyrine accumulation in dispersed mucosal cells. CGS-9343B must be added to cells before or simultaneously with acid secretagogues in order to be effective. The drug did not reverse previously stimulated secretion. Unlike trifluoperazine and fenoctimine, CGS-9343B had anticamodulin activity for inhibition of calmodulin-activated (Type I) phosphodiesterase in the same range of potency as observed for the inhibition of aminopyrine accumulation. In anesthetized rats and dogs the i.v. infusion of CGS-9343B did not block histamine plus pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion. However, i.a. administration of CGS-9343B to anesthetized rats produced a significant inhibition of acid secretion. In vivo the order of potency was omeprazole greater than cimetidine much greater than CGS-9343B. These data provide evidence for involvement of calmodulin in the acid secretory process and suggest that the pursuit of selective calmodulin antagonists such as CGS-9343B may prove useful for understanding the regulation of the hydrogen ion secretory process.
