CP94253 hydrochloride potently and selectively binds to 5-HT1B receptors (Ki = 2 nM) with minimal affinity for other serotonin receptor subtypes and no significant binding to a broad range of off-target receptors[3].
CP94253 (1.0-2.0 nM) hydrochloride acts as a competitive inhibitor of [125I]iodocyanopindolol binding to rat cerebral cortex membrane 5-HT1B receptors[4].
CP94253 (50-100 nM) hydrochloride competitively inhibits [3H]5-HT binding to bovine caudate membrane 5-HT1D receptors[4].

CP94253 (5 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) hydrochloride exerts a potent antidepressant-like effect in mice, reducing forced swimming test immobility time by 43%, via stimulation of 5-HT1B receptors (likely postsynaptic or heteroreceptors), with dopamine and noradrenaline systems contributing to this action[2].
CP94253 (0.5-10.0 mg/kg; s.c.) hydrochloride activates 5-HT1B receptors with dose-dependently increasing waking and reducing SWS (at 5.0-10.0 mg/kg) and suppresses REMS across all tested doses in male Wistar rats[3].
CP94253 (5.0-10.0 mg/kg; s.c.) hydrochloride-induced increases in waking and reductions in SWS can be reversed by pretreatment with 2.0 mg/kg (±) Pindolol (HY-B0982)[3].
CP94253 (3.2-32 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 9 days) hydrochloride administered orally to healthy rats induces transient anorexia, sustained reduced body weight gain, and persistent hyperlocomotion at 32 mg/kg, while 3.2 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg doses show no significant effects on these endpoints[4].
CP94253 (3-17 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) hydrochloride dose-dependently reduces species-typical aggression in male CFW mice with an ED50 of 7.2 mg/kg for attack bite reduction, an effect specific to 5-HT1B receptors as shown by antagonism with GR 127935 (HY-123869) and no effect of WAY 100,635 (HY-10349), without concurrent locomotor sedation[5].
CP94253 (3-10 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) hydrochloride reduces alcohol-heightened aggression in male CFW mice with a lower ED50 (3.8 mg/kg) than for non-heightened aggression, with dose-dependent effects that only reduce locomotor behaviors at the highest tested dose[5].
CP94253 (1-10 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) hydrochloride reduces instigation-heightened aggression in male CFW mice with a lower ED50 (2.7 mg/kg) than for non-instigated aggression, with dose-dependent effects on locomotor behaviors only at higher doses[5].
CP94253 (5-40 µmol/kg; i.p.; single injection 30 minutes prior to feeding) hydrochloride produces a potent hypophagic effect in mildly deprived rats consuming pellets, with an ID50 of 12.5 µmol/kg, by reducing meal duration and feeding frequency without altering resting behaviour[6].
CP94253 (5-28 µmol/kg; i.p.; single injection 30 minutes prior to sucrose access) hydrochloride produces a hypophagic effect in mildly deprived rats consuming 10% sucrose, with an ID50 of 22.8 µmol/kg, by reducing meal duration, feeding frequency, and licking burst/cluster frequency without impairing oral motor efficiency[6].
