Description

Lesopitron dihydrochloride is a full and selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist with IC50 of 125 nM in rat hippocampal membranes.

IC50 & Target

5-HT1A Receptor

125 nM (IC50, in rat hippocampal membranes)

In Vitro

In vitro binding and autoradiographic studies with [3H]8-OH-DPAT and [3H]Lesopitron as radioligands confirm that Lesopitron binds to 5-HT1A receptors in the rat brain with a relatively high affinity (pKi=7.35). As expected of a full agonist at postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors, Lesopitron (IC50=125 nM) inhibits forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in rat hippocampal membranes to the same extent as 5-HT. Lesopitron inhibits the firing of serotoninergic neurons both in vitro (in brainstem slices, IC50=120 nM)[1].

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

In Vivo

Lesopitron inhibits the firing of serotoninergic neurons both in vivo (in chloral hydrate-anaesthetized rats, ID50=35 μg/kg i.v.)[1]. Lesopitron administered at a dose which induces anxiolytic behaviour in rats (30 μg/kg, i.p.) markedly reduces 5-HT levels (to 45% of the basal value) in cortical perfusates[2].

Rats[2]
Male Wistar rats weighing 270-300 g, are used. Lesopitron is administered either through the dialysis probe (dissolved in artificial CSF) or i.p. (dissolved in 0.9% saline, 2 mL/kg body weight).

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.
