ropinirole

Ropinirole hydrochloride (SKF-101468A) is a selective dopamine D2 receptors agonist (Ki: 29 nM). Ropinirole hydrochloride (SKF-101468A) is the hydrochloride salt form of ropinirole, a non-ergot dopamine agonist with antiparkinsonian property.

Ropinirole (SKF 101468) is an orally active and potent D3 D2 receptor agonist with anti-amyotrophic lateral sclerosis effects. Ropinirole is used in the study of Parkinson's disease.

RU 24969 succinate, a 5-HT receptor agonist, exhibits K i values of 0.38 nM for 5-HT 1B and 2.5 nM for 5-HT 1A, indicating its affinity towards these receptors. It reduces fluid consumption and enhances forward locomotion. This compound is utilized in neurological disease research.

N-Despropyl ropinirole is an active metabolite of the dopamine D2 receptor agonist ropinirole. It increases extracellular acidification rates in CHO cells expressing human dopamine D2, D3, and D4 receptors (EC50s = 0.63, 0.063, and 1.23 µM, respectively). N-Despropyl ropinirole is also a potential impurity found in commercial preparations of ropinirole.
