PAOPA has been used in the study of schizophrenia and extrapyramidal dysfunction.

Syrosingopine is a dual inhibitor of MCT1 and MCT4, 60 times more potent against MCT4, preventing lactate and H+ efflux. Syrosingopine is an orally available antihypertensive drug with potential for cancer research in combination with metformin.

SCH-23390 hydrochloride (R-(+)-SCH23390 hydrochloride) is an effective dopamine receptor antagonist, with high affinity for the D1 (Ki=0.2 nM) and D5 (Ki=0.3 nM) receptors.

Oxidopamine hydrobromide (6-OHDA hydrobromide) is a neurotransmitter dopamine antagonist.

Aplindore Fumarate (DAB-452) is a small molecule dopamine D2 receptor partial agonist.Aplindore Fumarate exhibits high affinity for dopamine D2 and D3 receptors, and low affinity for dopamine D4, 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HT2), and α1-adrenergic receptors.Aplindore Fumarate is used in the study of Parkinson's disease and schizophrenia. Fumarate can be used to study Parkinson's and schizophrenia.

6-Chloromelatonin is a potent melatonin receptor agonist, a 5-methoxyindole compound that competes for presynaptic melatonin receptor sites in the rabbit retina, inhibiting the calcium-dependent release of [3H]dopamine with higher metabolic stability than melatonin. Chloromelatonin competitively binds to [3H]melatonin at MT2 receptors (pKi=9.77) and may be used to study insomnia and sleep disorders associated with depression.

Benperidol (Anquil) is a butanone analog with antipsychotic and stabilizing properties, and has been shown to be effective in blocking D2 receptors.Benperidol can be used in positron emission tomography (PET) scanning to measure D(2) dopamine receptor binding in vivo.Benperidol has been shown to be effective in blocking D2 receptors in vivo.Benperidol has been shown to be effective in blocking D2 receptors in vivo.

Trifluoperazine (trifluoroperazine) is a Dopamine D2 receptor inhibitor(IC50 : 1.2 nM), and Treatment of schizophrenia.

Escitalopram (Seroplex) is a furancarbonitrile that is one of the SEROTONIN UPTAKE INHIBITORS used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from tardive dyskinesia in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate this condition.

Citicoline (CDP-Choline) is an intermediate in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine, a component of cell membranes. Citicoline exerts neuroprotective effects.

Hirsuteine is a natural product. It non-competitively antagonizes nicotine-mediated dopamine release by blocking ion permeation through nicotinic receptor channel complexes.

(-)-Isocorypalmine ((S)-Tetrahydrocolumbamine), a natural product isolated from Corydalis chaerophylla, has significant antifungal activity.

Cabergoline (FCE-21336) is an ergot derived-dopamine D2-like receptor agonist. It has high affinity for D2, D3, and 5-HT2B receptors (Ki=0.7, 1.5, and 1.2, respectively).Cabergoline permits rapid and effective hormonal and tumor control by normalizing prolactin-producing pituitary adenomas levels.

Dopamine hydrochloride (ASL279), a naturally occurring catecholamine formed by decarboxylation of dihydroxyphenylalanine and a precursor of norepinephrine and epinephrine, binds to alpha-1- and beta-1- adrenergic receptors.

Brexpiprazole (OPC-34712) is a partial agonist of human 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 5-HT1A and dopamine D2 receptors.

SPD-473 citrate (BTS 74398 citrate) is a dopamine reuptake inhibitor, a norepinephrine transporter protein (NET) inhibitor, and a 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibitor, and is used in the study of neurological disorders and endocrine and metabolic diseases.

WAY-260022 is an orally available and selective norepinephrine transporter protein inhibitor that displays inhibitory effects on serotonin and dopamine transporter proteins.

PF-184298 is a serotonin and norepinephrine monoamine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) that inhibits dopamine reuptake.

Roxindole (EMD 49980) is a selective dopamine autoreceptor and 5-HT1A dual agonist and inhibitor of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) uptake with antipsychotic and antidepressant activity.Roxindole can be used to study Parkinson's and neurodivergence.
