Abstract

Luteolin, 5, 7-dihydroxy-2-(3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl)-4H-chromen-4-one, has been proposed and proved to be a novel dopamine transporter (DAT) activator. In order to develop this potential of luteolin, a series of novel luteolin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their DAT agonistic activities, utilizing constructed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines stably expressing rat DAT. Biological screening results demonstrated that ...
