 Use of Roxindole


Roxindole (EMD 49980), an indot-alkyl-pipenidine, is a potent agonist at dopamine autoreceptors, with an affinity for the D2-like subtype in the low nanomolar range. Roxindole can be used for the research of positive and negative schizophrenic symptoms. Roxindole is a 5-HT1A agonist and 5-HT uptake inhibitor with high affinity for 5-HT1A (IC50=0.9 nM). Antipsychotic and antidepressant activities[1][2][3].

In Vivo Roxindole (EMD 49980) (1, 3, 10 mg/kg; s.c) inhibits both effects of 8-OH- DPAT (flat body and forepaw treading) in normal rats (male Wistar 200-350g)[3]. Roxindole inhibits apomorphine-induced climbing in mice and stereotyped behavior in rats with ED50s of 1.4 mg/kg s.c. and 0.65 mg/kg s.c., respectively, and inhibits conditioned avoidance response in rats (ED50=1.5 mg/kg s.c.)[4].
