These results demonstrate in vivo that dexloxiglumide is a selective antagonist for CCKA-receptors whereas spiroglumide is selective for CCKB-gastrin-receptors. These compounds are therefore useful tools for discriminating between different subclasses of CCK-receptors in vivo and might have a therapeutic potential in motility or acid-related disorders.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
