w 7 and Pheochromocytoma

w 7 has been researched along with Pheochromocytoma in 2 studies

W 7: RN given refers to parent cpd; structure; calmodulin antagonist

Pheochromocytoma: A usually benign, well-encapsulated, lobular, vascular tumor of chromaffin tissue of the ADRENAL MEDULLA or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of EPINEPHRINE and NOREPINEPHRINE, is HYPERTENSION, which may be persistent or intermittent. During severe attacks, there may be HEADACHE; SWEATING, palpitation, apprehension, TREMOR; PALLOR or FLUSHING of the face, NAUSEA and VOMITING, pain in the CHEST and ABDOMEN, and paresthesias of the extremities. The incidence of malignancy is as low as 5% but the pathologic distinction between benign and malignant pheochromocytomas is not clear.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Pheochromocytoma cells were incubated for 90 minutes with W-7 (calmodulin antagonist), calphostin C (protein kinase C inhibitor), Sp-cAMPS (cAMP agonist), Rp-cAMPS (cAMP antagonist), forskolin (activator of adenylyl cyclase), or lead nitrate."3.69A study of the cellular mechanism by which lead affects catecholamine secretion.
