Biochem/physiol Actions

WAY-163909 is a 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2C (5-HT2C) agonist (EC50/Emax = 8 nM/90% vs. 185 nM/40%/5-HT2B; Ki = 10.5 nM/5-HT2C, 212 nM/5-HT2A, 343 nM/5-HT7, 485 nM/5-HT2B, 245 nM/D4, 665 nM/rat α-1, >1 μM/5-HT1A, D2, D3, rat 5-HT-T) with no 5-HT2A-stimulatory potency. WAY-163909 exhibits anorectic (ED50 in mg/kg via i.p. = 1.4/DIO mice and 5.19/Zucker rats), antipsychotic (morphine-induced mouse climbing ID50 = 10.69 mg/kg i.p.; rat avoidance responding reduction ED50 = 1.27 mg/kg i.p. and 6.50 mg/kg p.o.) and antidepressant (10 mg/kg, i.p. or s.c. in forced rat swimming test ; 3 mg/kg/day i.p. in reducing olfactory bulbectomy/BULB-induced hyperactivity in rats) efficacy in vivo.

5-HT(2C) agonists, by decreasing mesolimbic dopamine without affecting nigrostriatal dopamine, are predicted to have antipsychotic efficacy with low extrapyramidal side effects (EPS). Combining 5-HT(2C) agonists with low doses of existing antipsychotics could increase treatment efficacy while reducing treatment liabilities such

Anesthesia-Induced Hypothermia (AIH) has been reported to be the cause of many postoperative adverse effects, including increased mortality, decreased immune responses, cardiac events, and a greater prevalence of postoperative surgical wound infections. AIH can in some cases be minimized with

Serotonin-2C (5-HT2C) receptor antagonists and agonists have been shown to affect dopamine (DA) neurotransmission, with agonists selectively decreasing mesolimbic DA. As antipsychotic efficacy is proposed to be associated with decreased mesolimbic DA neurotransmission by virtue of DA D2 receptor antagonism

The pharmacological profile of WAY-163909 [(7bR, 10aR)-1,2,3,4,8,9,10,10a-octahydro-7bH-cyclopenta-[b][1,4]diazepino[6,7,1hi]indole], a novel 5-hydroxytryptamine (HT)(2C) (serotonin) receptor-selective agonist is presented. WAY-163909 displaced [(125)I]2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine binding from human 5-HT(2C) receptor sites, in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell membranes, with a K(i) value of 10.5 +/- 1.1

Perseverative behavior has been highly implicated in addiction. Activation of serotonin 2C receptors (5-HT2CRs) attenuates cocaine and high caloric food intake, but whether a 5-HT2CR agonist can reduce high caloric diet (HCD) or methamphetamine (METH) intake and response perseveration remains
