| Name | Niaprazine |
| Description | Niaprazine is a histamine H1-receptor antagonist exhibiting significant sedative properties. |
| In vitro | Niaprazine demonstrates a low affinity for the vesicular monoamine transporter as well as D2, α2, β, H1, and mAch receptors. Notably, the (+)stereoisomer of Niaprazine shows a significantly higher affinity for α1 (Ki = 77 nM) and 5-HT2 (Ki = 25 nM) binding sites, whereas it is poorly recognized by 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B binding sites[2]. |
| In vivo | Niaprazine (60 mg/kg; i.p.; once) treatment increases rat brain 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) concentrations 30 minutes post-treatment but reduces them 3-8 hours after treatment. Niaprazine also temporarily depletes rat brain noradrenaline (NA) and dopamine (DA) levels[3]. Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (150-200 g)[3]. |
| Storage | Shipping with blue ice/Shipping at ambient temperature. |
| Solubility Information | 10% DMSO+40% PEG300+5% Tween-80+45% Saline : 1 mg/mL (2.81 mM), Sonication is recommended. DMSO : 100 mg/mL (280.55 mM), Sonication is recommended.
