Assessing NH300094, a novel dopamine and serotonin receptor modulator with cognitive enhancement property for treating schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric disorder that significantly affects the quality of life of patients. The objective of this study is to discover a novel antipsychotic candidate with highly antagonistic activity against both serotonin and dopamine receptors, demonstrating robust efficacy in animal models of positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. In the present study, we examined the activity of antipsychotic drug (NH300094) on 5-HT, 5-HT, 5-HT, 5-HT, 5-HT, H, M, Alpha, D, D, Alpha, D receptor functional assay .

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Fused Tricyclic Heterocycle Piperazine (Piperidine) Derivatives As Potential Multireceptor Atypical Antipsychotics.

Herein, a novel series of multireceptor ligands was developed as polypharmacological antipsychotic agents using the designed multiple ligand approach between dopamine receptors and serotonin receptors. Among them, compound 47 possessed unique pharmacological features, exhibiting high affinities for D, D, 5-HT, 5-HT, and 5-HT receptors and low efficacy at the off-target receptors (5-HT, histamine H, and adrenergic α receptor). Compound 47 showed dose-dependent inhibition of apomorphine- and MK-801-induced motor behavior, and the conditioned avoidance response with low cataleptic effect.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new 6-hydroxypyridazinone benzisoxazoles: Potential multi-receptor-targeting atypical antipsychotics.

In recent years, multi-targeting directed ligands have attracted great interest as possible new atypical antipsychotics. Combinations of dopamine and serotonin receptor ligands within single molecules might afford new therapeutic opportunities. Herein, we describe the synthesis of a novel series of 6-hydroxypyridazinone benzisoxazoles and their binding behaviors to different receptors in terms of atypical antipsychotic behaviors.

Synthesis and evaluation of new coumarin derivatives as potential atypical antipsychotics.

In this paper, we report the synthesis of novel, potential antipsychotic coumarin derivatives combining potent dopamine D₂, D₃ and serotonin 5-HT(1A), 5-HT(2A) receptors properties. We describe the structure activity relationship that leads us to the promising derivative: 7-(4-(4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl)butoxy)-6-methyl-2,3-dihydrocyclopenta[c]chromen-4(1H)-one 27. The unique pharmacological features of compound 27 are a high affinity for dopamine D₂, D₃ and serotonin 5-HT(1A), 5-HT(2A) receptors, together with a low affinity for H₁ receptor (to reduce the risk of obesity under chronic treatment).

Synthesis and biological investigation of coumarin piperazine (piperidine) derivatives as potential multireceptor atypical antipsychotics.

The discovery and synthesis of potential and novel antipsychotic coumarin derivatives, associated with potent dopamine D2, D3, and serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptor properties, are the focus of the present article. The most-promising derivative was 7-(4-(4-(6-fluorobenzo[d]isoxazol-3-yl)-piperidin-1-yl)butoxy)-4-methyl-8-chloro-2H-chromen-2-one (17m). This derivative possesses unique pharmacological features, including high affinity for dopamine D2 and D3 and serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors.

Synthesis and evaluation of a series of 2-substituted-5-thiopropylpiperazine (piperidine)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles derivatives as atypical antipsychotics.

Background: It is important to develop novel antipsychotics that can effectively treat schizophrenia with minor side-effects. The aim of our work is to develop novel antipsychotics that act on dopamine D(2) and D(3), serotonin 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A) receptors with low affinity for the serotonin 5-HT(2C) and H(1) receptors, which can effectively cure positive symptoms, negative symptoms and cognitive impairment without the weight gain side-effect.

Methodology/principal Findings: A series of 2-substituted-5-thiopropylpiperazine (piperidine) -1,3,4-oxadiazoles derivatives have been synthesized and the target compounds were evaluated for binding affinities to D(2), 5-HT(1A) and 5-HT(2A) receptors.
