Tipepidine reversibly inhibits dopamine (DA) D2 receptor-mediated GIRK currents (IDA(GIRK)) with an IC50 of 7.0 μM. Tipepidine subsequently activates VTA dopamine neuron. Tipepidine, a non-narcotic antitussive, exerts an antidepressant-like effect.

Description

Tipepidine reversibly inhibits dopamine (DA) D2 receptor-mediated GIRK currents (IDA(GIRK)) with an IC50 of 7.0 μM. Tipepidine subsequently activates VTA dopamine neuron[1]. Tipepidine, a non-narcotic antitussive, exerts an antidepressant-like effect[2].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 7.0 μM (dopamine D2 receptor)[1]

In Vivo

Tipepidine (i.p.; 10-40 mg/kg; 0.5-23 hours) significantly decreases the immobility time in the forced swimming test in ACTH-treated rats. Tipepidine (i.p.; 40 mg/kg) increases the extracellular dopamine level of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) in ACTH-treated rats[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Male Wistar rats weighting 150-240 g (5-7 weeks old) [2]
Dosage: 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg.
Administration: I.p.; 0.5, 5, 23 hours.
Result: Decreased the immobility time in the forced swimming test in ACTH-treated rats.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
