Laping N, Grygielko E, Mathur A, Butter S, Bomberger J, Tweed C, et al.
Mol Pharmacol . 2002 Jun; 62(1):58-64. PMID: 12065755
Transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) is a potent fibrotic factor responsible for the synthesis of extracellular matrix. TGF-beta1 acts through the TGF-beta type I and type II receptors to activate...

Schlicker E, Fink K, Molderings G, Price G, Duckworth M, Gaster L, et al.
Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol . 1997 Sep; 356(3):321-7. PMID: 9303568
Human cerebral cortical slices and synaptosomes, guinea-pig cerebral cortical slices and human right atrial appendages were used to study the effects of SB-216641, a preferential h5-HT1B receptor ligand, and of...

Price G, Burton M, Collin L, Duckworth M, Gaster L, Gothert M, et al.
Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol . 1997 Sep; 356(3):312-20. PMID: 9303567
Despite only modest homology between h5-HT1B and h5-HT1D receptor amino acid sequences, these receptors display a remarkably similar pharmacology. To date there are few compounds which discriminate between these receptor...

Hagan J, Slade P, Gaster L, Jeffrey P, Hatcher J, Middlemiss D
Eur J Pharmacol . 1997 Jul; 331(2-3):169-74. PMID: 9274976
The selective, brain penetrant, 5-HT(1B/D) (formerly 5-HT(1D beta/alpha)) receptor agonist SKF-99101H (3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-4-chloro-5-propoxyindole hemifumarate) (30 mg/kg i.p.) causes a dose related fall in rectal temperature in guinea pigs which previous studies...

Roberts C, Price G, Gaster L, Jones B, Middlemiss D, Routledge C
Neuropharmacology . 1997 Apr; 36(4-5):549-57. PMID: 9225280
The importance of h5-HT1B receptor selectivity for 5-HT terminal autoreceptor activity was investigated with the selective h5-HT1B receptor ligands SB 219085, SB 220272, SB 224289 and SB 216641. The studies...

J Pharm Pharmacol . 1995 Mar; 47(3):219-22. PMID: 7602484
The ability of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) to evoke contractile activity in the gastric Heidenhain pouch was measured in conscious dogs using a method in which 5-HT4 receptor-antagonist activity can be measured...
