Molindone (hydrochloride)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Molindone hydrochloride (EN-1733A) is an orally active and brain-penetrant dopamine D2/D5 receptor antagonist. Molindone hydrochloride shows antipsychotic and antidepressant-like activities. Molindone hydrochloride suppresses spontaneous locomotion, and antagonizes apomorphine-induced emesis. Molindone hydrochloride can be used for the research of neurological disease.

Molindone hydrochloride scarcely affects rat brain MAO activity in vitro, with a IC50 of 9.8 × 10-3 M[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Molindone hydrochloride (5-75 mg/kg-bw/day; i.g.; daily; 8 weeks) induces dose-dependent CNS effects, body weight and food consumption reductions in males, serum chemistry alterations, organ weight changes, and delays in sexual maturation (attributed to reduced body weights), with most effects resolving during a 6-week non-dosing recovery period; no significant adverse effects on reproductive function are observed when administered orally to juvenile CD Sprague-Dawley rats[1].
Molindone hydrochloride (p.o.) exhibits neuroleptic and antidepressant activityin rats[2].
Molindone hydrochloride (1-2 mg/kg; p.o.) blocks Apomorphine (HY-12723)-induced emesis in dogs[2].
Molindone hydrochloride (0.5-1 mg/kg; p.o.) reduces aggressiveness for 2-3 hours, with higher doses producing gradual, sustained docility in Macaca mulatta[2].

-
Animal Model:GF1 mice (male)[2]
-
Dosage:2.5 mg/kg (tetrabenazine-induced ptosis ED50); 10.0 mg/kg (5-HTP potentiation ED50); 12.0 mg/kg (DOPA potentiation ED50); 5-15 mg/kg (catalepsy, hypothermia)
-
Administration:p.o.; 1 hour before test assessment
-
Result:Suppressed spontaneous locomotion, blocked conditioned avoidance responses, and antagonized amphetamine-induced stereotyped behaviour; relative potency vs.
chlorpromazine was 0.23 (locomotor suppression), 0.17 (avoidance blockade), and 0.31 (amphetamine antagonism).
Achieved an ED50 of 2.5 mg/kg for antagonizing tetrabenazine-induced ptosis.
Achieved an ED50 of 10.0 mg/kg for potentiating 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) effects.
Achieved an ED50 of 12.0 mg/kg for potentiating 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) effects.
Induced catalepsy and hypothermia at oral doses of 5-15 mg/kg.
-
Animal Model:Rhesus monkey[2]
-
Dosage:0.5, 1 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.
-
Result:Curtailed aggressiveness for 2-3 hours at oral doses of 0.5-1 mg/kg.
Increasing doses gradually increased the degree and duration of docility, with a more gradual response than chlorpromazine.

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 100 mg/mL (319.66 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 17.5 mg/mL (55.94 mM; Need ultrasonic and warming; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
