Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Pipequaline, also known as PK-8165, is an anxiolytic drug that was never marketed. It possesses a novel chemical structure that is not closely related to other drugs of this type. The drug has a similar pharmacological profile to the benzodiazepine family of drugs, but with mainly anxiolytic properties and very little sedative, amnestic or anticonvulsant effects, and so is classified as a nonbenzodiazepine anxiolytic. Pipequaline acts as a non-selective GABAA receptor partial agonist. While its profile of anxiolytic effects without sedation would appear to have potential medical applications, pipequaline has never been developed for medical use and is currently only used in scientific research.

Product Data
Biological target:
Pipequaline hydrochloride (PK-8165 hydrochloride) is a partial benzodiazepine receptor agonist with anxiolytic activity.
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
PK 8165, a ligand of BZD receptors, is an anxiolytic devoid of sedative and anticonvulsant effects. PK 8165, applied microiontophoretically or administered i.v. at low doses, suppressed CCK-8S-induced activation of rat hippocampal pyramidal neurons, whereas, at high doses it antagonized the effect of microiontophoretic applications of flurazepam. These results indicate that PK 8165 acts as a mixed agonist-antagonist at BZD receptors and suggest that the suppression of CCK-8S-induced activation by BZD might be related to their anxiolytic property rather than to their sedative or anticonvulsant activity.
