Sumanirole maleate has been used as a dopamine type 2 receptor (D2R) agonist to study its effects on spatial learning and memory in rats.[1][2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Sumanirole is a highly selective and potent dopamine D2 receptor agonist that decreased plasma prolactin levels and depressed dopamine neuron firing rates in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Sumanirole potently stimulates locomotor activity in in animal models of Parkinson′s disease.

Clinically significant pain often includes a decrease in both behavior and mesolimbic dopamine signaling. Indirect and/or direct dopamine receptor agonists may alleviate pain-related behavioral depression. To test this hypothesis, the present study compared effects of indirect and direct dopamine agonists

In recent years a wide range of studies have shown that G protein-coupled receptors modulate a variety of cell functions through the formation of dimers. For instance, there is growing evidence for the dimerization of bradykinin or dopamine receptors, both

The descending serotonergic pathway, from the brainstem to spinal cord, modulates various aspects of pain processing. The spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A and 5-HT2A receptors play pivotal roles in pain modulation. Perospirone is a novel atypical antipsychotic that serves as a 5-hydroxytryptamine
