Bioactivity | RU 24969 hemisuccinate is a preferential 5-HT1B agonist, with a Ki of 0.38 nM, but also displays appreciable affinity for the 5-HT1A receptor (Ki=2.5 nM), and has low affinity for other receptor sites in the brain. RU 24969 hemisuccinate could decrease fluid consumption and increase forward locomotion[1]. |
Invitro | RU 24969 (10 μM) reduces K+-stimulated release of [3H]-5-HT from ratfrontalcortex slices in vitro[2]. |
In Vivo | RU 24969 (0.03-3.0 mg/kg; s.c.) dose-dependently decreases water consumption in water deprived rats[1].RU 24969 (0.3-3.0 mg/kg; s.c.) dose-dependently increases forward locomotion[1]. Animal Model: |
