Description

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lorcaserin is an orally active, potent and selective 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor (5-HT2C) agonist (human/rat Ki = 15 /29 nM) with 18- and 104-fold higher potency than 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B by cellular inositol phosphate accumulation assay (EC50 = 9, 168, 943 nM, respectively) and good selectivity over 5-HT1A/3/4C/5A/6/7 and a panel of 67 other GPCRs and ion channels. Chronic daily treatment to rats (4.5-18 mg/kg p.o. b.i.d.) maintained on a high fat diet causes reductions in food intake and body weight gain.

Orally active, potent and selective 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor (5-HT2C) agonist in vitro and in vivo.
