Name | Loxapine succinate |
Description | Loxapine succinate (Loxapac), a D2DR and D4DR inhibitor, is utilized in schizophrenia. |
In vitro | In rats, subcutaneous injection of Loxapine (0.3 mg/kg) induces general stiffness. In the rat brain, administering Loxapine (5 mg/kg) does not alter dopamine receptor density, but it reduces serotonin receptor density. |
In vivo | Loxapine effectively facilitates the binding of [3H]ketanserin to 5-HT2 receptors in both the human frontal cortex (ki=6.2 nM) and the bovine frontal cortex (ki=6.6 nM). Additionally, in LPS-activated mixed glial cells, loxapine at concentrations of 0.2 μM, 2 μM, and 20 μM, successfully reduces the secretion of IL-1β and IL-2. |
