Clozapine is an atypical antipsychotic medication [1]
Clozapine has been considered an atypical antipsychotic medication because of their therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of schizophrenic patients resistant to conventional neuroleptics. In addition, Clozapine has shown the effect on binding 5HT1c and 5HT2 sites with pKi values of 8.07 and 7.63, respectively. Besides, Clozapine has been reported to recognize all human dopamine receptor subtypes with Ki values of 80nM, 230nM, 89nM, 141nM and 250nM for D2, D3, D4, D1 and D5 receptor, respectively. Clozapine has been found to be the only drug to have a higher affinity for 5-HT1c sites than for the 5-HT2, D1 and D2 receptors [1].

Applications |
Clozapine induced ERK1/2 cell signaling activation via the EGF receptor in mouse prefrontal cortex [1]. Moreover, Clozapine treatment led to marked accumulation of triglyceride and increase in gglutamyl transpeptidase (g-GT) activity, liver weight, and serum AST in rats [2]. |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
