| pubmed-article:11145160 | pubmed:abstractText | A series of N-azabicycloalkyl-1-alkyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxamides were synthesized and tested for serotonin 5-HT4 receptor-stimulating effects in the regulation of electrically-evoked contraction in guinea pig muscle. Among them, N-azabicycloalkyl-1-isopropyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxamide (8c, 9c, 10c, 11c, 12c) exhibited potent serotonin 5-HT4 receptor-stimulating activity. The most potent compound, N-(endo-8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1 oct-3-yl)-1-isopropyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3-quinolinecarboxamide (8c, ED50 = 36.3 nMi), was seven times as active as cisapride, while 8c had no affinity for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1D, D2, muscarinic M2 or muscarinic M3 receptors even at 10 microM. Compound 8c stimulated digestive tract motility in conscious fed dogs (1.0 mg/kg p.o.). | lld:pubmed |
