Mesoridazine
Mesoridazine (CAS 5588-33-0) is a dopaminergic antagonist primarily targeting dopamine D2 receptors (K_d = 19 nM). As an active metabolite of the atypical antipsychotic thioridazine, mesoridazine demonstrates marked inhibitory effects on both pre- and postsynaptic dopamine receptors, impacting dopamine and acetylcholine neurotransmission. Furthermore, mesoridazine engages histamine H1 (K_d = 1.8 nM), muscarinic acetylcholine (K_d = 69 nM), α1-adrenergic (K_d = 2 nM), and α2-adrenergic (K_d = 1600 nM) receptors. Its receptor profile makes mesoridazine valuable for neuroscience research into antipsychotic mechanisms and neurotransmitter regulation.

Applications |
Mesoridazine (10 mg/kg) did not completely abolish the locomotor activity, but did prevent the activity-increasing effect of mescaline. At high doses of 30 and 45 mg/kg, mesoridazine blocked not only the activity-increasing effect of mescaline but also the normal locomotor movements. |
