Application

SKF-83959 was used in dopamine signaling studies on eye blinking in monkeys and on phosphorylation of CaMKIIα in mice.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SKF-83959 is an atypical agonist of D1 dopamine receptor and an allosteric modulator of σ-1 receptor on in brain and liver tissues. It has neuroprotective and anti-parkinsonian effects through selective activation of phosphoinositol-linked D1 receptor and promotes migration of cultures astrocytes by ERK1/2 activation. In in vitro studies SKF-83959 exhibits antagonist activity against dopamine D1 receptors coupled to adenylyl cyclase.
D1 dopamine receptor agonist. Displays antagonist activity in vitro and agonist activity in vivo.

Central dopaminergic system exerts profound modulation on spontaneous glutamate release in various brain regions mainly through D(1) receptor/cAMP/PKA pathway. It remains unclear whether the phosphatidylinositol (PI)-linked D(1)-like receptors are also involved in such modulatory actions. The identification of substituted phenylbenzazepine

Although the potent anti-parkinsonian action of the atypical D₁-like receptor agonist SKF83959 has been attributed to the selective activation of phosphoinositol(PI)-linked D₁ receptor, whereas the mechanism underlying its potent neuroprotective effect is not fully understood. In the present study, the
