R121919 (NBI30775) is a potent and selective CRF1R antagonist with a Ki of 2 to 5 nM. R121919 has antidepressant and anxiolytic effects. R121919 alleviates defensive withdrawal in rats[1][2][3].
R121919 is a potent small-molecule CRF1 receptor antagonistwith high affinity for the CRF1 receptor and over 1000-fold weaker activity at the CRF2 receptor, CRF-binding protein, or 70 other receptor types[1].
R121919 (NBI30775) dose dependently decreases adrenocorticopin hormone and Corticosterone (HY-B1618) responses to restraint stress in rats. Peak plasma adrenocorticopin hormone and corticosterone concentrations at a dose of 10 mg/kg R121919 are 9 and 25%, respectively[1].
R121919 reduces levels of anxiety in mice with a steep dose-response curve[2].
