| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Pipequaline is a partial agonist of central benzodiazepine receptors (Ki = 78 nM in a radioligand binding assay). In mice, pipequaline enhances the effects of diazepam , further reducing foot shock-induced fighting behavior and the number of maximal electroshock-induced seizures and potentiating the muscle relaxant and hypnotic effects. Pipequaline also increases drinking in the Vogel punished drinking task indicating anxiolytic-like activity that can be reversed by the benzodiazepine receptor antagonist flumazenil . | [Uses]
Pipequaline (PK 8165) is a partial benzodiazepine receptor agonist with anxiolytic activity[1][2]. | [in vivo]
Intravenously administered pipequaline exerts a partial suppression of activations by kainate, glutamate and acetylcholine. Microiontophoretic applications of pipequaline reduces the neuronal activation by kainate[2]. Pipequaline produces dose-related decreases in motor activity. Pipequaline produces significant dose-related decreases in the number of head-dips made[3]. | [storage]
