Description

(S)-SKF-83959 (MCL 201) is enantiomer of D1 receptor agonist SKF-83959. (S)-SKF-83959 is reported to be a functionally selective dopamine D1 receptor ligand with much lower affinity to dopamine D2, D3 and D5 receptors. (R)-SKF-83959 like SKF-83959, produced dose related effects on overt behavior (eye blinking) and schedule-controlled performance in squirrel monkeys. (R)-SKF-83959 increases in eye blinking and decreases in rates of fixed-ratio responding. In contrast to the effects of its S-(-) enantiomer, was relatively devoid of behavioral activity up to doses that were approximately 10-fold greater than (R)-SKF-83959.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Rats were treated with (S)-SKF-83959 (0.003–10.0 mg/kg) as single i.m. injection
Route of Administration: Intramuscular
In Vitro Use Guide
(S)-SKF-83959 was assayed for affinity at dopamine receptors in rat caudate – putamen tissue from adult male Sprague–Dawley rats. Fresh, rapidly dissected brain tissue was hand-homogenized in 50 mM Tris–HCl buffer pH 7.4, dopamine D1 receptor assays, tissue was incubated with (S)-SKF-83959 or [3H]SCH-23390 (0.30 nM) for 30 min at 30C, using excess cis-flupenthixol (10 mkM) as a blank
