Background

DOI hydrochloride is a brain-permeable agonist of 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptors, with Ki values being 0.7, 2.4 and 20 nM for 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C and 5-HT2B receptors, respectively. The 5-HT2 receptor consists of three distinct subpopulations, i.e. 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors, among which the 5-HT2A receptor contributes to the major part of the behavioral effects evoked by hallucinogens. DOI, as a phenylisopropylamine hallucinogen, can thus be used to explore 5-HT2 receptor mediated biological events due to its high affinity for the 5-HT2 receptor. In addition, DOI has also been used as an analytical reference standard categorized as a phenethylamine and amphetamine.

Protocol

Cell experiment:[3]

Cell lines

Rat aortic smooth muscle (RASM) cells

Reaction Conditions

1 nM DOI

Applications

DOI rapidly blocked TNF-α-induced ICAM1 expression in RASM cells. Moreover, the effect of DOI at blocking proinflammatory gene expression remained many hours after addition of TNF-α.

Animal experiment:[4]

Animal models

Male Wistar rats, 350–400 g

Dosage form

0.35 ~ 0.7 mmol/kg

Subcutaneous administration

Applications

DOI significantly increased waking and light sleep, and reduced slow wave sleep, rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep, and the number of REM periods in rats.
