1. Pituitary-adrenal and vagus modulation of sauvagine- and CRF-induced inhibition of gastric emptying in rats

M Broccardo,G Improta Eur J Pharmacol . 1990 Jul 3;182(2):357-62. doi: 10.1016/0014-2999(90)90294-g.

Sauvagine and CRF significantly delayed gastric emptying in rats: sauvagine was 21 times more potent than CRF in inhibiting gastric emptying when injected subcutaneously and 59 times more potent when injected intracerebroventricularly. The inhibitory effect of intracerebroventricular and subcutaneous injections of sauvagine and CRF was always reversed by vagotomy. Hypophysectomy significantly reduced the inhibitory effect of subcutaneously injected sauvagine and CRF, but not that of intracerebroventricularly injected peptides. Adrenalectomy completely prevented the inhibition of gastric emptying only if it was performed 7 days before peptide administration, whereas the central and peripheral inhibitory effect of sauvagine and CRF was retained after acute (1 h) adrenalectomy. In animals adrenalectomized 7 days previously, chronic administration or a single dose of corticosterone at different intervals (1, 24 and 72 h) before the test caused the peptides to recover their inhibitory activity. These results demonstrate that the inhibitory action of sauvagine and CRF clearly depends on the integrity of the parasympathetic nervous system (vagus), and on corticosterone secretion by the adrenal gland.

2. A sauvagine/corticotropin-releasing factor receptor expressed in heart and skeletal muscle

C R Lin,R V Pearse 2nd,T Kishimoto,M G Rosenfeld Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 1995 Feb 14;92(4):1108-12. doi: 10.1073/pnas.92.4.1108.

Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) mediates many critical aspects of the physiological response to stress. These effects are elicited by binding to specific high-affinity receptors, which are coupled to guanine nucleotide stimulatory factor (Gs)-response pathways. Recently, a gene encoding a receptor for CRF, expressed in pituitary and the central nervous system (PC-CRF receptor), was isolated and characterized. Here we report the identification and characterization of a second, distinct CRF receptor that is expressed primarily in heart and skeletal muscle and exhibits a specific ligand preference and antagonist sensitivity compared with the PC-CRF receptor. We refer to this second receptor as the heart/muscle (HM)-CRF receptor.

3. KAMBÔ: an Amazonian enigma

Vidal Haddad Junior,Itamar Alves Martins J Venom Res . 2020 May 26;10:13-17.

The secretions of the Giant Monkey FrogPhyllomedusa bicolorare used by populations in the Amazon regions (mainly the indigenous Katukinas and Kaxinawás). The so-called "toad vaccine" or "kambô" is applied as a medication for infections and to prevent diseases, and also as physical and mental invigorator, and analgesic. Since the 1980s, researchers and companies have been interested in the composition of these secretions. Phyllomedusin, phyllokinin, caerulein and sauvagine are the polypeptides in these secretions that can cause intense effects on smooth muscles, vessels provoking, nausea and vomiting, arterial hypotension, flushing, palpitations, nausea, vomiting, bile secretion and angioedema. These actions are similar to bradykinin. However, the feeling of well-being and improvement of motor skills described by the users seems to be associated with dermorphine, caerulein or deltorphin - peptides with analgesic properties - and their affinity for the opiate receptor systems. Caerulein is a peptide that increases digestive secretions. Phyllomedusin and Phyllokinin lead to blood pressure and digestive effects. Sauvagine release corticotropin and mimics the physiological reactions of exposure to stress. Deltorphins and dermorphins have high affinity for the opiate receptor system and can lead to analgesia. The fame acquired by the therapy motivated the use by individuals from urban areas worldwide, without safety considerations. While in indigenous communities, there is an entire cultural tradition that provides relative safety to the application, however, the extension of use to individuals from urban areas worldwide is a problem, with reports of severe adverse effects and deaths. Undoubtedly, the skin secretions of thePhyllomedusagenus contain substances of intense pharmacological action and that can lead to research for therapeutic uses, but control over their application in rituals outside the forest is needed due the risks presented.

4. 125I-Tyro-sauvagine: a novel high affinity radioligand for the pharmacological and biochemical study of human corticotropin-releasing factor 2 alpha receptors

N Ling,S F Palmer,J Vaughn,D E Grigoriadis,X J Liu,E B De Souza,W W Vale,C D True Mol Pharmacol . 1996 Sep;50(3):679-86.

Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) receptors encoded by two distinct genes have recently been identified and termed CRF1 and CRF2. CRF and the non-mammalian-related peptide sauvagine bind to and activate CRF1 receptors with high affinity and equal potency. Although CRF is significantly weaker at the CRF2 receptor, sauvagine retains its high affinity interactions with this receptor subtype. We expressed the human CRF1 and CRF2 receptor subtypes in stable cell lines and characterized 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine, a high affinity radiolabel suitable for the pharmacological and functional profiles of these proteins. 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine has high affinity (200-400 PM) for CRF1 receptors and demonstrates a pharmacological profile identical to that of 125I-Tyr0-ovine CRF-labeled CRF1 receptors. 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine binding to human CRF2 alpha receptors is saturable and of high affinity (KD = 100-300 PM) and demonstrates guanine nucleotide sensitivity typical of agonist binding to receptors. The pharmacological profile of 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine binding to CRF2 alpha receptors with respect to inhibition by CRF-related analogs is similar to the agonist profile of potencies obtained by measurements of cAMP production stimulated by these analogs in CRF2 alpha expressing cell lines and distinct from the profile of the CRF1 receptor subtype. Thus, the related nonmammalian peptides sauvagine and urotensin have high affinity and rat/ human CRF and ovine CRF have lower affinity for CRF2 receptors labeled with 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine. Because the distribution of CRF1 and CRF2 alpha receptors has been demonstrated to be distinct, suggesting selective functional roles for each receptor subtype, the ability to label CRF2 alpha receptors with 125I-Tyr0-sauvagine in vitro represents a unique opportunity for the discovery of subtype-selective nonpeptide ligands, which would presumably target different aspects of CRF-mediated disorders. We have thus identified and characterized a novel high affinity radioligand for the labeling of CRF2 receptors.
