Product Data
Biological target:
Metoclopramide HCl (Metoclopramide hydrochloride) is a selective dopamine D2 receptor antagonist.
In vitro activity:
This study aimed at elucidating the effect of metoclopramide on triple-negative breast cancer, MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with various concentrations of metoclopramide, the cell proliferation was detected by MTT method, the apoptosis rate was detected by Annexin V/PI double staining method, the expression change of death-related protein was detected by Western Blot. This study found that metoclopramide inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 in a concentration-dependent manner, and the Bcl family was involved in this process. Reference: Pharmazie. 2021 Apr 1;76(4):172-174. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33849703/
In vivo activity:
The present study evaluated behavioral and neurochemical effects of long-term exposure to MET (methionine) in zebrafish. The results showed that metoclopramide was not only beneficial in improving MET-induced cognitive impairment but it also prevented social withdrawal in zebrafish exposed to MET. In addition, metoclopramide reversed anxiety-like behavior, as indicated by significant changes in locomotion activity.
