Clozapine hydrochloride (HF 1854 hydrochloride) is an antipsychotic used for the research of schizophrenia. Clozapine hydrochloride has high affinity for a number of neuroreceptors. Clozapine hydrochloride is a potent antagonist of dopamine D2 with a Ki of 75 nM. Clozapine hydrochloride inhibits the muscarinic M1 receptor and serotonin 5HT2A receptor with Kis of 9.5 nM and 4 nM, respectively[1][2][3]. Clozapine hydrochloride is also a potent and selective agonist at the muscarinic M4 receptor (EC50=11 nM)[4]. | [in vivo]
Clozapine hydrochloride (25 mg/kg/day; i.p.; 21 days) shows antipsychotic effects in lysergic acid diethylamide-induced psychosis mouse model[3]. | Animal Model: | Male 129 S6/Sv mice, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD)-induced psychosis model[3] | | Dosage: | 25 mg/kg/day | | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection, 21 days | | Result: | Decreased head-twitch response, reduced 5-HT2A mRNA, rescued induction of c-fos, but not egr-1 and egr-2. |
