Application

Quipazine maleate salt has been used as a serotonin receptor agonist to study its effects on mouse models with spinal cord injury. It has also been used as a serotonin receptor agonist to study its effects on the locomotion of zebrafish.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Quipazine belongs to the class of psychedelics and acts as a serotonin/5-hydroxytryptamine-2A/C receptor agonist. It also acts as an inhibitor of prolactin.

After complete spinal cord transections that removed all supraspinal inputs in adult rats, combinations of serotonergic agonists and epidural electrical stimulation were able to acutely transform spinal networks from nonfunctional to highly functional and adaptive states as early as 1

Collective evidence suggests that inhibition of neuronal 5-hydroxytryptamine type 2A (5-HT(2A)) receptors contributes to the assuagement of depression-like behaviour in rodents. The present study evaluated the antidepressant-like effect of the 5-((4-benzo [alpha] isothiazol-3-yl) piperazin-1-yl) methyl)-6-chloroindolin-2-one (BIP-1), a compound having affinity
