Description:

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

Pimavanserin, also known as ACP-103, is an inverse agonist on the serotonin receptor subtype 5-HT2A, with 40x selectivity over 5-HT2C, and no significant affinity or activity at 5-HT2B or dopamine receptors. Pimavanserin is a novel drug candidate for Parkinson's psychosis.Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP) is a condition that may develop in up to 60 % of Parkinson's patients, and is a major reason for nursing home placement for those affected.

Product Data
Biological target:
Pimavanserin is a selective inverse agonist of the 5-HT2A receptor with pIC50 and pKd of 8.73 and 9.3, respectively.
In vitro activity:
Autophagy was induced upon PVT (pimavanserin) treatment in pancreatic ducal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. Interestingly, PVT induced the expression of autophagy markers ULK1, FIP200, Atg101, Beclin-1, Atg5, LC3A/B, and cleavage of caspase-3, an indicator of apoptosis in several PDAC cells. ULK1 agonist LYN-1604 enhanced the autophagic and apoptotic effects of PVT. On the other hand, autophagy inhibitors chloroquine and bafilomycin blocked the autophagic and apoptotic effects of PVT in PDAC cells.

In vivo activity:
A potent 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)2A receptor inverse agonist and antagonist, ACP-103 [N-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-N-(1-methylpiperidin-4-yl)-N'-(4-(2-methylpropyloxy)phenylmethyl) carbamide (2R,3R)-dihydroxybutanedioate (2:1, active:salt)], was evaluated for its ability to reduce the primary motor symptom of tremor using tacrine-induced tremulous jaw movements in rats, which is an animal model of parkinsonian tremor. Furthermore, ACP-103 was evaluated for its ability to reduce levodopa-induced dyskinesias in monkeys rendered parkinsonian with MPTP [1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine]. ACP-103 reduced tacrine-induced tremulous jaw movements in rats. In addition, ACP-103 administered in combination with levodopa caused a dose-related reduction in dyskinesias in monkeys.
