R 568 hydrochloride is an activator and allosteric agonist of the CaSR (calcium-sensing receptor) via positive allosteric modulation. R 568 hydrochloride exhibits calcimimetic activity. R 568 hydrochloride has the ability to restore function to hCaSR mutants that cause familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) and neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT). R 568 hydrochloride exerts a suppressive effect on parathyroid (PT) hormone secretion. R 568 hydrochloride, a white crystalline powder, readily dissolves in water and ethanol. As a calcium channel blocker, it hinders the entry of calcium into cells. Consequently, intracellular calcium levels decrease, leading to diverse effects on cell function. One notable impact is the inhibition of neurotransmitter release, including glutamate, which ultimately lowers neuron excitability.
