Background

S1RA hydrochloride is a potent and selective antagonist of σ1 receptor (σ1R) with Ki value of 17nM [1].S1RA is the first σ1 receptor antagonist with potent antinociceptive activities in various pain models. In the binding assay, S1RA shows good affinity to human σ1 receptor transfected in HEK293 membranes with Ki value of 17nM. The Ki value for guinea pig brain membrane σ1 receptor is higher than 1μM. S1RA also shows no significant affinity to another 170 molecular targets including receptors, ion channels and enzymes [1, 2]. In the mouse tests, S1RA exhibits potent analgesic effects on capsaicin-induced mechanical hypersensitivity and formalin-induced pain. Besides that, S1RA inhibits both mechanical allodynia and thermal hypersensitivity with ED50 values of 23.4mg/kg and 18.8mg/kg in the partial sciatic nerve ligation model in mice [1].
