Definition
ChEBI: SB 221284 is an indolyl carboxylic acid.
Biological Activity
Potent, selective 5-HT 2C/2B receptor antagonist. pK i values are 6.4, 7.9 and 8.6 for 5-HT 2A , 2B and 2C receptors respectively. Centrally active upon systemic administration in vivo .
in vivo
SB 221284 (0.1~1 mg/kg, i.p.) pre-treatment doses shows to block mCPP induced hypolocomotion, significantly enhances the hyperactivity induced by phencyclidine or MK-801[1].
