Product Description
Information
8-OH-DPAT (8-Hydroxy-DPAT) is a kind of classic5-HT1Aagonist with the pIC50 of 8.19. It has a selectivity of almost-1000 fold for a subtype of the 5-HT1 binding site; Its biological half-life is 1.5 hous.
Targets
5-HT1A (Cell-free) 8.19(pIC50)
In vitro
The drug is only weakly effective at 5-HT1B subtype, the pIC50 being 5.42 ± 0.08 (n = 5). Since 8-OH-DPAT has no effect on 5-HT1B binding at concentrations lower than 100 nM. 8-OH-DPAT is able to reduce the accumulation of both autophagic-derived and photoreceptor outer segment-derived lipofuscin, increase antioxidant protection and reduce oxidative damage in cultured human RPE cells.
In vivo
Intravenous administration of the selective 5-HT1A-receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT rapidly reverses the hypotensive and bradycardic responses established during severe hemorrhage with relatively little variability. 8-OH-DPAT is relatively lipophilic and readily crosses the blood-brain barrier.
