General description

3, 4 dihydro-2--(1H)quinolinone is the major component of aripiprazole.

Application

Aripiprazole has been used to study behavioral and neurochemical effects of aripiprazole treatment in juvenile spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), a model for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Aripiprazole has been used to study its effect on mammary tumorigenesis, mediated by retrovirus delivery of receptor tyrosine-protein kinase 2 or HRas proto-oncogene, GTPase or by transgenic expression of Wnt-1 (proto-oncoprotein). It has also been used to study its behavioral and neurochemical effects in juvenile spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Aripiprazole is a second generation atypical antipsychotic and anti-depressant with partial agonist activity at dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors and antagonist activity at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. Ki values are 0.34 nM, 0.8 nM, 1.7 nM, and 3.4 nM, respectively, for dopamine D2 and D3, serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Aripiprazole is used in the treatment of schizophrenia.
Aripiprazole serves as a ‘dopaminergic stabilizer′. It is used as a potential therapeutic to treat schizophrenia patients. In addition, it is also preferably used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in patients with Tourette syndrome (TS).

Psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia and neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease are associated with poly-factorial pathogenic mechanisms, with several neurotransmitter systems closely involved. In addition to the cerebral dopaminergic (DA) system, the serotoninergic (5-HT) system also plays a crucial role in

Atypical antipsychotics generally have a lower propensity for extrapyramidal side-effects (EPSE), hyperprolactinaemia and tardive dyskinesia than that associated with typical antipsychotics but may still produce troublesome side-effects, such as weight gain, cardiac rhythm changes and impaired glucose tolerance. Aripiprazole is
