Mosapride is a gastroprokinetic agent that acts as a selective 5HT4 agonist. The major active metabolite of mosapride, known as M1, additionally acts as a 5HT3 antagonist, [1] which accelerates gastric emptying throughout the whole of the gastrointestinal tract in humans, [2] and is used for the treatment of gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, functional dyspepsia [3] and irritable bowel syndrome. [4] It is recommended to be taken on an empty stomach (i.e. at least one hour before food or two hours after food). [5]

In addition to its prokinetic properties, mosapride also exerts anti-inflammatory effects on the gastrointestinal tract which may contribute to some of its therapeutic effects. [6] Mosapride also promotes neurogenesis in the gastrointestinal tract which may prove useful in certain bowel disorders. [7] [8] The neurogenesis is due to mosapride's effect on the 5-HT4 receptor where it acts as an agonist. [9]

Its common side effects include dry mouth, abdominal pain, dizziness, headache, insomnia, malaise, nausea, diarrhea and sometimes constipation. [3] [10] Unlike some other prokinetic agents, mosapride has little effect on potassium channels, no effect on hERG transfected cells, and no effect on cardiovascular function that could be detected in tests on humans. [1] [11] Due to the pharmacokinetics of mosapride, it would take 1,000–3,000 times the therapeutic dose to elicit cardiovascular effects. [12]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">5-HT receptor</span> Class of transmembrane proteins

5-HT receptors, 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors, or serotonin receptors, are a group of G protein-coupled receptor and ligand-gated ion channels found in the central and peripheral nervous systems. They mediate both excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission. The serotonin receptors are activated by the neurotransmitter serotonin, which acts as their natural ligand.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cisapride</span> Chemical compound

Cisapride is a gastroprokinetic agent, a drug that increases motility in the upper gastrointestinal tract. It acts directly as a serotonin 5-HT4 receptor agonist and indirectly as a parasympathomimetic. Stimulation of the serotonin receptors increases acetylcholine release in the enteric nervous system. It has been sold under the trade names Prepulsid (Janssen-Ortho) and Propulsid (in the United States). It was discovered by Janssen Pharmaceuticals in 1980. In many countries, it has been either withdrawn from the market or had its indications limited due to incidence of serious cardiac side-effects. Propulsid was linked to children's deaths.

Tegaserod is a 5-HT4 agonist manufactured by Novartis and sold under the names Zelnorm and Zelmac for the management of irritable bowel syndrome and constipation. Approved by the FDA in 2002, it was subsequently removed from the market in 2007 due to FDA concerns about possible adverse cardiovascular effects. Before then, it was the only drug approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration to help relieve the abdominal discomfort, bloating, and constipation associated with irritable bowel syndrome. Its use was also approved to treat chronic idiopathic constipation.

5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (5-HT2B) also known as serotonin receptor 2B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HTR2B gene. 5-HT2B is a member of the 5-HT2 receptor family that binds the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT). Like all 5-HT2 receptors, the 5-HT2B receptor is Gq/G11-protein coupled, leading to downstream activation of phospholipase C.

PRX-03140 is an orally-bioavailable selective partial agonist to the 5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 4 (5-HT4) and a ligand for the Sigma-1 and Sigma-2 receptors. PRX-03140 is a partial agonist (18% relative to 5-HT) of the 5-HT4 receptor that was developed by EPIX Pharmaceuticals for Alzheimer's disease. PRX-03140 is a highly selective and potent (Ki = 22-37 nM) 5-HT4R agonist in radioligand binding assays with more than 100-fold difference in affinities compared with all other 5-HT receptors tested. PRX-03140 behaves as a partial agonist in cell lines expressing either the human 5-HT4aR, 5-HT4bR or 5-HT4eR isoforms, stimulating cAMP production to 30%-60% compared to 5-HT. PRX-03140 also demonstrates binding to both the Sigma-1 and Sigma-2 receptors (Ki = 79-100 nM and 99-160 nM, respectively) in radioligand binding assays, but demonstrates no significant affinity for more than 50 other receptors tested including GPCRs, ion channels and receptor tyrosine kinases. PRX-03140 demonstrates high CNS penetration without inducing significant distal gastrointestinal motility observed with gastrointestinally active 5-HT4 agonists (e.g. cisapride, tegaserod).
