Application

(R)-(+)-8-Hydroxy-DPAT hydrobromide has been used as a 5-HT1A agonist:
  • in mice to test the activity of the serotonin receptor
  • to test its effect on zebrafish melanocyte migration and survival
  • to stimulate hippocampal neurons

Biochem/physiol Actions

(R)-(+)-8-Hydroxy-DPAT administration reduces aggressive behavior. It decreases food intake by modifying the sensitivity of 5-HT1A receptor during food deprivation.
(R)-(+)-8-Hydroxy-DPAT is a full 5-HT1A serotonin receptor agonist; active enantiomer of (±)-8-hydroxy-DPAT.

Disturbance of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators is thought to underlie the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Studies of 15q dup mouse models of ASD with human 15q11-13 duplication have revealed that restoring serotonin (5-HT) levels can partially reverse ASD-related symptoms

Brain serotonin (5-HT) is involved in the control of food intake. The ingestive effects of 5-HT are mediated by various receptor subtypes, among others the 5-HT1A receptor. While the involvement of presynaptic 5-HT1A receptors is regarded as certain, the role

Imaging methods that enable the investigation of functional networks both in human and animal brain provide important insights into mechanisms underlying pathologies including psychiatric disorders. Since the serotonergic receptor 1A (5-HT(1A)-R) has been strongly implicated in the pathophysiology of depressive

The enantiomers of the N,N-dimethylamino (1), N,N-diethylamino (2), and N,N-dibutylamino (4) derivatives of 8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)tetralin (8-OH DPAT; 3) have been synthesized. The compounds have been tested for activity at central 5-hydroxytryptamine and dopamine receptors by use of biochemical and behavioral tests
