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).

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).

Previous studies have shown that ligands of the sigma-1 receptor chaperone (Sig-1R) regulate pain-related behaviors. Clinical use of chemotherapeutics is often compromised due to their adverse side effects, particularly those related to neuropathy. Previous studies have shown that repeated administration

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.
