R568 anti-secretory effects under forskolin-stimulated conditions. Mouse intestines were pretreated with forskolin (FSK, 500 nM, added to the serosal bath), ex vivo, in Ussing chambers to elevate cyclic AMP and excite neurons to induce hypersecretion. Following this pre-treatment, R568 (10 µM) and lidocaine (Lido, 1.6 mM)/TTX (2 µM) were subsequently added to the serosal solution of Ussing chambers with the sequence of their additions indicated. Summarized are steady-state Isc changes of these pretreated intestines and effects of R568 and lidocaine/TTX. R568 abolishes the forskolin’s excitatory effect in colons of wild-type mice and mice expressing neuronal CaSR (villinCre/Casrflox/flox or villin mice) but not in mice lacking neuronal CaSR (nestinCre/Casrflox/flox or nestin mice). NS, no significance.
