Description:

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

Rotigotine HCl is a dopamine receptor agonist with preference for D3 receptors over D2 and D1. As such, it is an effective anti-Parkinsonian agent. Racemic rotigotine is about 50 times as potent as quinpirole, the gold standard D2 agonist.

Product Data
Biological target:
Rotigotine is a non-selective dopamine receptor agonist with pEC50 values of 9.6, 10.4, 8.2, 7.7, and 7.7 for D1, D2, D3, D4, and D5, respectively.
In vitro activity:
Rotigotine is a high-potency agonist at human dopamine D1, D2 and D3 receptors with a lower potency at D4 and D5 receptors. Rotigotine differs from conventional dopamine D2 agonists, used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, such as ropinirole and pramipexole which lack activity at the D1 and D5 receptors. Reference: Br J Pharmacol. 2015 Feb;172(4):1124-35. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25339241/
In vivo activity:
Results from this study provide a possible therapeutic application of rotigotine to prevent dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease. Subcutaneous administration of rotigotine increased MT-1,2 expression in striatal astrocytes and prevented reduction of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of a 6-OHDA-lesioned mouse model of Parkinson's disease.

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
