General description

Spiperone is a butyrophenone antipsychotic agent. It induces calcium-dependent chloride secretion in the airway and functions as a potential therapeutic target for cystic fibrosis.

Application

Spiperone has been used to block the actions of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor. It also has been used to study its anti tumor effects in glioblastoma (GBM) cell lines.
Spiperone was used to study the role of dopamine receptors in facilitating the male sexual behavior in quails.6

Biochem/physiol Actions

Selective D2 dopamine receptor antagonist; α1B-adrenoceptor antagonist; mixed 5-HT2A/5-HT1 serotonin receptor antagonist; antipsychotic.

Reconstitution

Solutions may be stored for 1-2 days at 4 °C.

MS Binding Assays are a label-free alternative to radioligand binding assays. They provide basically the same capabilities as the latter, but use a non-labeled reporter ligand instead of a radioligand. In contrast to radioligand binding assays, MS Binding Assays offer-owing

Biased agonism describes the ability of ligands to stabilize different conformations of a GPCR linked to distinct functional outcomes and offers the prospect of designing pathway-specific drugs that avoid on-target side effects. This mechanism is usually inferred from pharmacological data
