Dopamine Receptor Activator

Secretoneurin, rat, a 33-amino acid polypeptide, is generated by proteolytic processing of secretogranin II (SgII). Secretoneurin, rat induces dopamine release in the rat striatum in vivo and in vitro, and it exerts a very strong chemotactic effect on monocytes and eosinophils but not on granulocytes.

N-Palmitoyl dopamine (PALDA) is a endogenous, long-chain, linear fatty acid dopamide, which is inactive on TRPV1. N-Palmitoyl dopamine displays 'entourage' effects on endovanilloids N-arachidonoyl-dopamine (NADA) and anandamide.

Quinpirole (LY 171555; (-)-LY 141865) is a D2/D3 dopamine receptor agonist and a CaV1.3 calcium channel modulator. Quinpirole normalizes dendritic spine density in dopamine-depleted striatum, upregulates the protein expression of BCL2 and GluR2, downregulates the protein expression of BAX, and delays the onset of seizures. Quinpirole enhances learning and memory, inhibits neuronal apoptosis (apoptosis), and induces anxiety-like, stereotyped, and compulsive behaviors. Quinpirole disrupts prepulse inhibition in rhesus monkeys, enhances the activity of paraventricular thalamic neurons to promote recovery from Isoflurane anesthesia, and alters the composition of the gut microbiota in rats. Quinpirole can be used in research related to dyskinesia, pain, epilepsy, and neurological disorders including anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and schizophrenia.

Octodrine (2-Amino-6-methylheptane) is a central nervous stimulant that increases the uptake of dopamine and noradrenaline. Octodrine is found to increase the pain threshold, cardiac rate (positive chronotropic effect) and myocardial contractility (positive inotropic effect).

Mefexamide (ANP-297) hydrochloride is a psychostimulant psychopharmaceutical and aryloxyacetic acid derivative antidepressant with dopaminergic activity. Mefexamide hydrochloride can be used for the research of depression.

Pirepemat (IRL752) is a corticalpreferring catecholamine- and cognition-promoting agent. Pirepemat (IRL752) is used for the study of Parkinson's disease. IRL752 is a selective enhancer of cortical dopamine, acetylcholine and norepinephrine.

2'-O-Methylisoliquiritigenin, isolated from the Arachis species, up-regulates 5-HT, NE, DA and GABA pathways, but does not put a very significant effect on ne NE pathway.

Dopamine-¹³C,¹⁵N (hydrochloride) is the ¹³C and ¹⁵N labeled Dopamine hydrochloride.

RS-51324 is an oral active antidepressant agent. RS-51324 inhibitts norepinephrine uptake and reverses of Reserpine (HY-N0480)-induced hypothermia.

BB-22 is a cannabinoid wih dopamine (DA) stimulant properties. BB-22 shows affinity to CB1 receptors with a K_i value of 0.11 nM and an EC₅₀ value of 2.9 nM.

Mefexamide (ANP-297) is a psychostimulant psychopharmaceutical and aryloxyacetic acid derivative antidepressant with dopaminergic activity. Mefexamide can be used for the research of depression.

Boc-MIF-1-Am (compound 2) is a human dopamine D2 receptor enhancer (EC₅₀=17.82 nM) and is a bioconjugate of melanostatin (MIF-1) and amantadine. Boc-MIF-1-Am (200 μM) exhibited mild neurotoxicity in SH-SY5Y cells.
