Background

Mesoridazine is a dopaminergic antagonist, with a Kd value of 19 nM for the dopamine D2 receptor. Mesoridazine is an active metabolite of the atypical antipsychotic drug thioridazine, exhibiting stronger inhibition on pre- and postsynaptic dopamine receptors which modulate dopamine and acetylcholine release. Thus, mesoridazine is responsible for a significant part of the antidopaminergic effects attributed to thioridazine. In addition, mesoridazine also binds to histamine H1, muscarinic acetylcholine, as well as α1- and α2-adrenergic receptors, with Kd values being 1.8, 69, 2 and 1600 nM, respectively.

Protocol

Animal experiment:[3]

Animal models

Swiss-Webster albino mice, 30~33 g

Dosage form

10, 30 and 45 mg/kg

Intraperitoneal Injection

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.
