Levomepromazine maleate
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Levomepromazine maleate (Methotrimeprazine maleate) is an orally active antipsychotic compound and Ca2+ release inducer. Levomepromazine maleate inhibits SERCA pump and induces an increase in cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels. Levomepromazine maleate has antagonistic effects on a variety of neurotransmitter receptors, including dopamine, cholinergic, serotonin, and histamine receptors. Levomepromazine maleate can induce adaptive ER stress and autophagy. In addition, Levomepromazine maleate has antiviral, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective and analgesic, sedative and anti-injurious activities. Levomepromazine maleate can be used in the study psychiatric disorders and relieving nausea and vomiting.

Biological Activity
Levomepromazine (10 μM; 24 h) maleate reduces Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV)-induced Neuro2a cell death, reduces JEV RNA levels and viral titers, and significantly inhibits JEV protein translation/replication complex formation and ROS production[1].
Levomepromazine (10 μM; 24 h) maleate decreases the inflammatory response of microglia by inducing autophagy[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
