Conditions:
Quinpirole (LY 171,555) is a psychoactive drug and research chemical which acts as a selective D2 and D3 receptor agonist. Quinpirole is the most widely used D2 agonist in in vivo and in vitro studies. Specific quinpirole binding in rat brain was saturable, and dependent on temperature, membrane concentration, sodium concentration and guanine nucleotides. Saturation analysis revealed high affinity binding characteristics (KD = 2.3 nM) which were confirmed by association-dissociation kinetics. The regional distribution of [3H]quinpirole binding sites roughly paralleled the distribution of [3H]spiperone binding sites, with greatest densities present in the striatum, nucleus accumbens and olfactory tubercles. A variety of drugs, most notably monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOls), inhibit the binding of [3H]quinpirole, but not [3H]spiperone or [3H](-)N-n-Propylnorapomorphine, in rat striatal membranes by a mechanism that does not appear to involve the enzymatic activity of MAO. Clinically antidepressant MAOIs exhibited selectivity between sites labeled by [3H]quinpirole and [3H]spiperone as did a number of structurally related propargylamines and N-acylethylenediamine derivatives and other drugs such as debrisoquin and phenylbiguanide. Quinpirole has been shown to increase locomotion and sniffing behavior in mice and induces compulsive behavior symptomatic of obsessive compulsive disorder in rats.

Lergotrile is an ergot alkaloid clinically effective in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The in vivo dopaminergic effects of lergotrile are similar to those produced by the direct acting dopaminergic agonists apomorphine or L-DOPA. Like apomorphine or L-DOPA, lergotrile decreases prolactin secretion, produces stereotyped behavior in intact rats, and causes contralateral rotation in rats with uniIateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of substantia nigra. However, unlike apomorphine or L-DOPA, lergotrile does not activate dopamine sensitive adenylate cyclase in vitro. Side effects of lergotrile included exacerbation of hallucinations, dyskinesias, hypotension, and alterations in liver function tests. Although lergotrile, when added to levodopa, has a definite antiparkinsonian effect, the incidence of adverse effects, particularly hepatotoxicity, makes it unlikely that this ergot alkaloid will become widely available for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Bifeprunox, code name DU-127,090 is an atypical antipsychotic agent, which combines minimal D2 receptor agonism with 5-HT receptor agonism. Bifeprunox was in phase III of clinical trials for the treatment of schizophrenia, Bipolar Depression and in phase I for Parkinson's disease, but these studies were discontinued because efficacy data did not support pursuing the existing development strategy of stabilization of non-acute patients with schizophrenia.

Pridopidine is an experimental drug candidate belonging to a class of agents known as dopidines, which act as dopaminergic stabilizers in the central nervous system. As a dopamine stabilizer, pridopidine is thought to reduce the effects of dopamine when there’s too much and increase its effects when there’s too little. Pridopidine, therefore, plays two opposing roles in the brain, which stabilize dopamine levels. In this way, pridopidine is thought to help the brain reestablish a normal balance of neurotransmitters, and thus regain control over motion. Pridopidine intended to treat Huntington’s disease movement symptoms. Pridopidine was well tolerated and had an adverse event profile similar to a placebo.

Conditions:
Fluperlapine is dibenzazepine chemically and pharmacologically similar to clozapine. Fluperlapine had no cataleptogenic effect and did not inhibit the apomorphine- and d-amphetamine-induced stereotypes. Fluperlapine is fairly effective neuroleptic drug with a fast-acting antipsychotic affect. The effects in movement disorders imply that fluperlapine is less liable than traditional neuroleptics to induce acute extrapyramidal side effects and tardive dyskinesia and is particularly beneficial in the treatment of patients vulnerable to neurological side-effects. It was demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of a variety of medical conditions including schizophrenia, psychosis associated with Parkinson's disease and dystonia. It has the capacity for producing life-threatening agranulocytosis.

Pentiapine is a dopamine release inhibitor. It is a tranquiliser. Pentiapine produces a dose-dependent decrease in spontaneous motor activity and blocks the morphineinduced hyperactivity. Moreover, this drug in itself has no effect on place conditioning but blocks the acquisition of morphine-induced conditioned place preference.
Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)
Targets:
Clorotepine (aka octoclothepin or octoclothepine) is an antipsychotic from the tricyclic group derived from perathiepin. It was originally developed in 1965 and marketed in the Czech Republic by Spofa in or around 1971 for the treatment of schizophrenic psychosis. Clorotepine has a high affinity for the dopamine (D1, D2, D3, D4), receptors the serotonin 5-HT (2A, 2B, 2C, 6, 7) receptors, the alpha-adrenergic receptors (1A, 1B, 1D), and the histamine H1 receptors. In most instances, it acts as an antagonist (or inverse agonist). Clorotepine will also block the reuptake of norepinephrine by inhibiting the norepinephrine transporter.

Conditions:
Pardoprunox is a partial D2/3 dopamine receptor agonist and full 5-HT1A serotonin receptor agonist. Partial D(2/3) dopamine (DA) receptor agonists provide a novel approach to the treatment of the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease that may avoid common dopaminergic side effects, including dyskinesia and psychosis. Pardoprunox passed phase III clinical trial for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

Targets:
Eticlopride {2S(−)-3-chloro-5-ethyl-N-[(1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)methyl]-6-hydroxy-2-methoxybenzamide} is an antagonist at dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. It is widely used for in vivo, in vitro, and ex vivo examination of D2/D3 receptors densities and function. Eticlopride exerts antipsychotic activity in animals.
Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)
Targets:
Prosulpride is an aminosulfonylbenzamide derivative with potent neuroleptic activity. Prosulpride selectively blocks the presynaptic dopaminergic receptors and antagonize apomorphine-induced stereotyped behavior, circling behavior, climbing behavior, increased motor activity and some other apomorphine-induced effects related to stimulation of postsynaptic dopaminergic receptors.
