Biochem/physiol Actions

SA4503 is a high affinity, orally active non-opioid intracellular receptor sigma-1 (σ1R) selective agonist (IC50 = 17.4 nM against 200 nM (+)-pentazocine for binding σ1R), exhibiting ~100-fold less affinity for the sigma 2 receptor subtype (σ2R) and little or no affinity toward 36 other receptors, ion channels and second messenger systems. Oral administration is reported to elicit cerebral acetylcholine (ACh) release in rat frontal cortex and hippocampus (5-20 mg/kg p.o.) and reduce immobility time in a mouse forced swimming test (Immobility time = 214.8 s without vs. 111.6 s with 1.0 mg/kg oral dosage).

This study examined the effect of the N-phenylpropyl-N'-substituted piperazine ligands SA4503 (3.4-dimethoxyphenethyl), YZ-067 (4-methoxyphenethyl), YZ-185 (3-methoxyphenethyl) and Nahas-3h (4-methoxybenzyl) on methamphetamine-induced hyperactivity in mice. In a previous study in rats, SA4503 increased methamphetamine-induced hyperactivity at a lower ligand dose and

The binding profiles of SA4503 (1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride), a novel sigma receptor ligand, to sigma 1 and sigma 2 receptor subtypes in guinea pig and rat brain membranes were evaluated. SA4503 showed a high affinity for the sigma 1 receptor subtype

Cardiovascular diseases are risk factors for depression in humans. We recently proposed that σ1 receptor (σ1R) stimulation rescued cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure induced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in mice. Importantly, σ1R stimulation reportedly ameliorates depression-like behaviors in rodents.

The immobility time in the mouse forced swimming test was dose-dependently reduced by sigma 1 receptor agonists, such as 1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenethyl)-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride (SA4503) and (+)-pentazocine, and non-specific sigma receptor agonists, such as 1,3-di(2-tolyl)guanidine (DTG) and (+)-N-cyclopropyl-methyl-N-methyl-1,4-diphenyl-1-yl-but-3-en-1-ylamin e hydrochloride (JO-1784).

Haloperidol is an antipsychotic drug that inhibits the dopamine D2 receptor among others. Haloperidol also binds the sigma-1 receptor (σ1R) and inhibits it irreversibly. A serious outcome of haloperidol treatment of schizophrenia patients is death due to sudden cardiac failure.
