Bioactivity | Fluphenazine hydrochloride is a potent, orally active phenothiazine-based dopamine receptor antagonist. Fluphenazine hydrochloride blocks neuronal voltage-gated sodium channels. Fluphenazine hydrochloride acts primarily through antagonism of postsynaptic dopamine-2 receptors in mesolimbic, nigrostriatal, and tuberoinfundibular neural pathways. Fluphenazine hydrochloride can antagonize Methylphenidate-induced stereotyped gnawing and inhibit climbing behaviour in mice. Fluphenazine hydrochloride can be used for researching psychosis and painful peripheral neuropathy associated with diabetes and has potential to inhibit SARS-CoV-2[1][2][3][4][6]. |
