This report describes the in vitro features of the first somatostatin sst (1) receptor selective non-peptide antagonist, SRA880 ([3R,4aR,10aR]-1,2,3,4,4a,5,10,10a-Octahydro-6-methoxy-1-methyl-benz [g] quinoline-3-carboxylic-acid-4-(4-nitro-phenyl)-piperazine-amide, hydrogen malonate).

11172755 Inoue T, Wang F, Moriguchi A, Shirakawa K, Matsuoka N, Goto T: FK960, a novel potential anti-dementia drug, enhances high K (+)-evoked release of somatostatin from rat hippocampal slices. Brain Res. 2001 Feb 16;892(1):111-7.

We have demonstrated that FK960 [N-(4-acetyl-1-piperazinyl)-p-fluorobenzamide monohydrate], a novel putative anti-dementia drug of piperazine derivative, ameliorates memory deficits in a variety of animal models of dementia in rats and monkeys, and also augments long-term potentiation (LTP) in the mossy fiber-CA3 pathway in guinea-pig hippocampal slices.

BMY 14802 (1000 microg/kg orally), a sigma receptor antagonist, or cyclosomatostatin (CSS 1 microg/kg intravenously), a somatostatin antagonist, were given five minutes prior to JO 2871 in LPS, E coli-sta, and C difficile toxin treated mice.

20007849 Foong JP, Parry LJ, Gwynne RM, Bornstein JC: 5-HT (1A), SST (1), and SST (2) receptors mediate inhibitory postsynaptic potentials in the submucous plexus of the guinea pig ileum. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol. 2010 Mar;298(3):G384-94. Epub 2009 Dec 10.


The specific SSTR (2) antagonist CYN 154806 (100 nM) and a specific SSTR (1) antagonist SRA 880 (3 microM) each reduced the amplitude of nonadrenergic IPSPs and hyperpolarizations evoked by somatostatin.
