DOB, 4-bromo-2,5-dimethyloxyamphetamine, a potent hallucinogen, displays high affinity for the 5-HT2 receptor in binding assays. Since 5-HT contractile responses in guinea pig trachea are mediated by 5-HT2 receptors, we assessed the activity of DOB and related analogs in this preparation.

The affinities of putative serotonin receptor agonists and antagonists for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, and 5-HT2 receptors were assayed using radioligand binding assays. The 5-HT1 sites were labeled with the agonist radioligands [3H]-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin [3H]-8-OH-DPAT, [3H]-5-HT, and [3H]mesulergine. The 5-HT2 receptor was

2,5-Dimethoxy-4-bromoamphetamine (DOB) is one of the potent hallucinogenic phenylalkylamines, whose ingestion has already caused several deaths reported all over the world. However, there is insufficient information on DOB properties based on controlled pharmacokinetic studies available. The aim of this study
