Bioactivity | Osemozotan hydrochloride (MKC242) is a selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist. Osemozotan hydrochloride decreases the number of c-Fos-positive cells caused by MAMP in mice. Osemozotan hydrochloride can be used for the research of depressive disorder[1][2]. |
In Vivo | Osemozotan hydrochloride (1 mg/kg; i.p.; 20 min after picrotoxin treatment) ameliorates picrotoxin-induced decrease in female preference with the combination of (+)-SKF-10,047[1].Osemozotan hydrochloride (1 mg/kg; i.p.; once) decreases the number of c-Fos-positive cells caused by MAMP[2].
