General description
Clozapine N-oxide (CNO), inactive from of clozapine drug, activates G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). CNO serves as a synthetic ligand for engineered human muscarinic receptor. It elicits clozapine-like effects upon metabolic conversion. Clozapine conversion to CNO favors its passage through blood-brain barrier.
Application
Clozapine N-oxide has been used:
- for the activation of human M4 muscarinic (hM4Di) in primary motor cortex
- for inducing in vivo chemogenetic manipulation and impairing locomotor activity in Th-cre transgenic mice
- in behavioral testing in mice and for stimulating (HEK293) cells
Biochem/physiol Actions
5-HT2 serotonin receptor antagonist; major metabolite of clopazine that can be monitored by HPLC.
