135PAM1 increases the intracellular Ca²⁺ response to amidated, but not free acid RXFP3 agonists in cells coexpressing RXFP3 and G_qI5.

<p>Intracellular Ca²⁺ responses by HEK-293 cells coexpressing RXFP3 and G_qI5 were measured in response to escalating concentrations of 135PAM1 using probe (EC₂₀) concentrations of Relaxin-3_NH2 (A), Relaxin-3_OH (B), R3/I5_NH2 (C), or R3/I5_OH (D).</p

Shifting of amidated RXFP3 agonist concentration response curves by 135PAM1 in cells lacking chimeric G proteins.

<p>SK-N-MC cells coexpressing RXFP3 and a reporter construct linking CRE activity to β-galactosidase were incubated with fixed concentrations of 135PAM1 (0, 0.2, 2 and 20 µM) and increasing concentrations of Relaxin-3_NH2 (A) or R3I5_NH2 (B).</p

135PAM1 shifts the concentration response curves of Relaxin-3_NH2 and R3/I5_NH2.

<p>HEK-293 cells coexpressing RXFP3 and G_qI5 were incubated with fixed concentrations of 135PAM1 (0, 0.2, 2 and 20 µM) 10 min before the addition of increasing concentrations of Relaxin-3_NH2 (A), R3I5_NH2 (B), Relaxin-3_OH (C) or R3I5_OH (D).</p

135PAM1 lacks affinity at the orthosteric binding site of RXFP3 receptor.

<p>135PAM1 did not displace [125I] R3/I5_NH2 at concentrations of up to 20 µM, but instead increased total binding. R3/I5_NH2 displaced the tracer with a pIC₅₀ of 8.76 (8.91 to 8.61).</p
