Application

R(+)-SCH-23390 hydrochloride has been used:
  • for intraperitoneal injection into experimental rats to study the role of D1 receptor in sensitization
  • as a D1 receptor-selective antagonist for intracranial drug infusions
  • as an antagonist of D1 receptor to study its effect on learning ability in fish

Biochem/physiol Actions

R(+)-SCH-23390 hydrochloride is a selective D1 dopamine receptor antagonist. It has greater binding capacity towards 5-hydroxytryptamine 2 (5-HT2) and 5-HT1C serotonin receptor subtypes in in vitro. R(+)-SCH-23390 has a half-life of about 25 minutes after administration. It is known to possess anti-stereotypic effect and cataleptogenic effect. It also has inhibitory effect on motor activity.
