Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Anti-calcium channel activators' effects are selectively limited by fluspirilene at doses that change dihydropyridine binding non-competitively [1]. The viability of astrocytoma stem cell lines is lowered and spheroid formation is inhibited by fluspirilene in a dose-dependent manner. At 1.25, 2.5, and 5 μM, it inhibits the growth of T98, U87, and all GSC cell lines. At 2.5 and 5 μM, it inhibits the growth of U251 and SNB19 [2]. |
| ln Vivo | Fluspirilene-treated mouse models demonstrated a notable decrease in volume. Fluspirilene considerably increased the TGS04 mouse model's survival time [2]. |

| Additional Infomation |
8-[4,4-bis(4-fluorophenyl)butyl]-1-phenyl-1,3,8-triazaspiro[4.5]decan-4-one is a diarylmethane. A long-acting injectable antipsychotic agent used for chronic schizophrenia. A long-acting injectable antipsychotic agent used for chronic schizophrenia. Drug Indication Used for the treatment of schizophrenia. Pharmacodynamics Fluspirilene is a relatively long-acting injectable depot antipsychotic drug used for schizophrenia. Fluspirilene does not differ greatly from other depot antipsychotics (fluphenazine decanoate, fluphenazine enathate, perphenazine onanthat, pipotiazine undecylenate) with respect to treatment efficacy, response or tolerability. Outcomes suggest that fluspirilene does not differ significantly from oral antipsychotics or in different weekly regimens, although much cannot be inferred because of the shortage of trials. |
Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~25 mg/mL (~52.57 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.26 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.26 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
