| Bioactivity | Cyproheptadine hydrochloride is a potent and orally active 5-HT2A receptor antagonist, with antidepressant and antiserotonergic effects. Cyproheptadine hydrochloride has antiplatelet and thromboprotective activities. Cyproheptadine hydrochloride can be used for the research of thromboembolic disorders[1][2]. |
| Invitro | Cyproheptadine hydrochloride (0.01-100 nM; 1 minute) dose-dependently inhibits serotonin-enhanced ADP-induced mouse platelet aggregation in vitro[2].Cyproheptadine hydrochloride (10 nM) has the ability to inhibit 15 µM serotonin-enhanced ADP-induced (1 µM) tyrosine phosphorylation in platelets in vitro[2].Cyproheptadine hydrochloride inhibits human platelet PS exposure (Annexin V), P-selectin, and GPIIb-IIIa (PAC-1 binding) activation in vitro[2]. |
| In Vivo | Cyproheptadine hydrochloride (1 mg/kg; i.p.; daily, for 5 days; C57BL/6 mice) exerts thromboprotective properties in vivo[2]. Animal Model: |
