KPR-5714 (KPR5714) is a novel potent, selective TRPM8 antagonist with IC50 of 25.3 and 22.4 nM against hTRPM8 and rTRPM8, respectively.KPR-5714 dispalys 400-fold against human TRPA1, TRPV1, and TRPV4, and does not show inhibitory effects for ASIC1a, ASIC3, Nav1.3, Nav1.5, Nav1.6, Nav1.7, and Nav1.8 (IC50 values >10 uM).KPR-5714 (i.p.) inhibited the hyperactivity of mechanosensitive C-fibers of bladder afferents and dose-dependently increased the intercontraction interval shortened by intravesical instillation of acetic acid in anesthetized rats.KPR-5714 (orally administered) dose-dependently increased the mean voided volume and decreased voiding frequency without affecting total voided volume in vivo.
