| [Description]
Quetiapine hemifumarate (111974-72-2) is an atypical antipsychotic agent. Antagonist at serotonin (5-HT2) and dopamine (D2) receptors, IC50s=148 and 329 nM respectively.2 Reverses depressive-like behavior and reduces DNA methyltransferase activity induced by maternal deprivation in a rat model.3 Efficacious as a monotherapy in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder.4 | [Brand name]
Seroquel (AstraZeneca). | [General Description]
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Quetiapine hemifumarate is an atypical antipsychotic, a combined serotonin (5HT2) and dopamine (D2) receptor antagonist. | [in vitro]
quetiapine has shown affinity for various neurotransmitter receptorsincluding dopamine, serotonin, histamine, and adrenergicreceptors, quetiapine exihibited binding characteristics at the dopamine-2receptorsimilar to those of clozapine [1]. | [in vivo]
in animal models, quetiapine exihibited a preclinical profile suggestive of antipsychotic activity with a reduced tendency to cause extrapyramidal symptoms (eps) and sustained prolactin elevation. quetiapine altered neurotensin neurotransmission and c-fos expression in limbic but not motor brain regions.in humans, quetiapine exhibited linear pharmacokinetics with a mean terminal half-life of 7 hours.the optimal dosing range for quetiapine was 150 to 750 mg/day, and recent results suggested that once-daily dosing might be suitable for some patients [1].quetiapine prevented schizophrenia and depression in hippocampal cell proliferation and bdnf expression caused by chronic restraint stress (crs) in rats in a dose-dependent manner. quetiapine (5 mg/kg) in combination with venlafaxine (2.5 mg/kg) increaseed hippocampal cell proliferation and prevented bdnf decrease in stressed rats, while each of the drugs exerted mild or no effects [2].in rats subjected to chronic-restraint stress, chronic administration of quetiapine attenuated the decrease in levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf) in the hippocampi. the stress-induced suppression of hippocampal neurogenesis was reversed after post-stress administration of quetiapine (10 mg/kg) for 7 or 21 days, evidenced in the numbers of pcreb-positive and brdu-labeled cells that were comparable to those in non-stressed rats but higher than those in the vehicle-treated rats [3]. | [target]

| Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Antipsychotics]
Quetiapine fumarate is an antipsychotic, successfully developed by the AstraZeneca United States, it interacts with a variety of neurotransmitter receptors, in the brain, it displays high degree affinity for serotonin (5-HT2) receptor, and it is greater than dopamine D1 and D2 dopamine receptor affinity in the brain. Quetiapine also has high affinity for histamine H1 receptor and adrenergic α1 receptors, and low affinity for α2 receptors, but it basically displays no affinity for cholinergic muscarinic receptors or benzodiazepine receptors . It shows positive results in antipsychotic activity assays such as conditioned avoidance reflex . In clinical, it is mainly used in treatment for adults with severe depression, acute manic episodes of bipolar disorder and schizophrenia of different types . It is not only effective for the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, but also having a certain effect for negative symptoms . It can also alleviate affective symptoms associated with schizophrenia, such as depression, anxiety symptoms and cognitive deficits.
