| Bioactivity | Olanzapine (LY170053) is a selective, orally active monoaminergic antagonist with high affinity binding to serotonin H1, 5HT2A/2C, 5HT3, 5HT6 (Ki=7, 4, 11, 57, and 5 nM, respectively), dopamine D1-4 (Ki=11 to 31 nM), muscarinic M1-5 (Ki=1.9-25 nM), and adrenergic α1 receptor (Ki=19 nM). Olanzapine is an atypical antipsychotic[1][2]. |
| Invitro | Olanzapine binds weakly to GABAA, Benzodiazepine (BZD), and β-adrenergic receptors (Ki>10 μM) [1][2]. Olanzapine induces autophagy in human SH-SY5Y neuronal cell line[3]. Olanzapine (1-100 μM for 144 h under serum starvation) results in a marked anti-proliferative effect in glioblastoma cell lines as well as glioma stem-like cells[4]. Olanzapine also enhances Temozolomide’s anti-tumor activity in glioblastoma cell lines[4].Olanzapine induces apoptosis and necrosis in glioblastoma cell lines[4].
