| Name | SKF38393 hydrobromide |
| Description | SKF38393 hydrobromide is the salt form of SKF38393.SKF38393 is a dopamine D1 receptor agonist that increases the expression of Shati/Nat8L mRNA in the NAc of mice; increases the frequency of 5-hydroxytryptamine and n -methyl- D -aspartate-induced locomotion-associated ruptures in astrocytes; can mimic the dopamine-induced inhibition of colonic motility in mice; can promote locust swarming |
| In vitro | Methods: To assess the role of dopamine receptor subtypes in the initiation of behavioral sensitization to cocaine, the partial D1 agonist SKF-38393 (0.01-1.0 μg/side), the D2/3 agonist quinpirole (0.1-1.0 μg/side), or saline was infused once daily into the ventral tegmental area (VTA) or nucleus accumbens shell over 3 days.
Results: 1.0 μg/side SKF-38393 infusion into the nucleus accumbens shell produced significant behavioral hyperactivity after both the first and last daily infusions, with no significant differences in behavioral responses between days; repeated administration of SKF-38393 into the VTA resulted in sensitization to the locomotor activating effects of cocaine.[6] |
