Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Risperidone has a Kis of 4.8 and 5.9 nM for the 5-HT2A and D2 dopamine receptors, respectively, making it a strong antagonist of the dopamine receptor, a P-Glycoprotein inhibitor, and a blocker of the serotonin 5-HT2 receptor. In contrast to its dose-dependent induction of IL-10 production, risperidone inhibited the release of IL-12 in mature DCs. Maturated DCs may release TNF-α when given a high dose of risperidone[3]. |
| ln Vivo | In the first experiment, the body weight of the rats treated with risperidone was found to be progressively but slightly lower as a function of age. In the second locomotor experiment, age-dependent variations in body weight are also noted among the three treatment groups. On postnatal days 35, 38, and 41, rats given a 3.0 mg/kg dose of risperidone weighed less than rats given a vehicle treatment. Unlike the smaller, single-sex litters used in the first two locomotor experiments, larger, mixed-sex litters are used in the third experiment. In the third experiment, rats treated with risperidone gained less weight in an age-dependent manner, as was observed in the previous two[4]. |
| Animal Protocol | Rats: There are 211 Long-Evans rats in total—156 males and 56 females. In every study, injections of 1.0 mg/kg of risperidone, 3.0 mg/kg of risperidone, or the vehicle used to deliver the risperidone solution as a control are given to three groups of approximately equal numbers of rats. In the first experiment, twenty-six male rats are tested for locomotor activity for twenty minutes per day starting at postnatal day 49 and continuing daily until postnatal day 53 (n = 9 in the vehicle and 3.0 mg/kg Risperidone group; n = 8 in the 1.0 mg/kg Risperidone group). An additional study examined whether the effects of early-life Risperidone treatment on locomotion continued into adulthood. In a third experiment, the effects of sex on early-life Risperidone's locomotor effects in young adult rats are investigated. Sixty male (n = 20 per treatment group) and fifty-six female (n = 19 rats in the vehicle and 3.0 mg/kg dose group, n = 18 in the 1.0 mg/kg dose group) rats are treated in this experiment. In a fourth experiment, rats given risperidone early in life were evaluated for reversal learning during adulthood. Treatment is given to 42 male rats (n=14 per treatment group)[4]. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
