GBR 12935 dihydrochloride

别名

1-[2-(Diphenylmethoxy)ethyl]-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine dihydrochloride

应用

GBR 12935 dihydrochloride has been used as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor to study its effects on noradrenergic stimulation in the medial prefrontal cortex of rats (mPFC). It has also been used as a selective dopamine transporter (DAT) inhibitor to study its effects on behavior and neurochemical response in enriched condition (EC) and impoverished condition (IC) rats.

生化/生理作用

GBR 12935 inhibits the dopamine and norepinephrine transporters with Kis of 21.5 nM and 225 nM, respectively. It does not inhibit the serotonin transporter (Ki = 6.5 mM). GBR 12935 binds to a nondopaminergic piperazine site in blood platelets and brain that has been identified as cytochrome P450.
