Vestipitant  (Synonyms: GW597599)

Vestipitant (GW597599) is a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (pKi: 9.4, hNK1) with hypnotic effects and the ability to suppress primary insomnia. Vestipitant can effectively block substance P-mediated extracellular regulated kinase phosphorylation and relieve anxiety and possible depression induced by the agonist GR73632 (HY-P1192) in gerbils. Vestipitant can also improve functional dyspnea, anxiety, insomnia, irritable bowel disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, tinnitus and antiemetic effects^[1][2][3].
