Example text

Other partial DA agonists, including terguride 55, have shown antipsychotic efficacy albeit in small clinical trials. At least part of the beneficial effects of aripiperazole 5658 may be related to its partial DA agonist properties. As expected of a partial agonist, this drug acts as an antagonist at the D2 receptors in a state of excessive dopaminergic neurotransmission, while it acts as an agonist at the D2 receptor in a state of low dopaminergic neurotransmission. Aripiperazole, therefore, appears to stabilize dopaminergic neurotransmission.

As expected of a partial agonist, this drug acts as an antagonist at the D2 receptors in a state of excessive dopaminergic neurotransmission, while it acts as an agonist at the D2 receptor in a state of low dopaminergic neurotransmission. Aripiperazole, therefore, appears to stabilize dopaminergic neurotransmission. However, aripiperazole also exhibits high affinity for serotonin 5HT1A and 5HT2A receptors, moderate affinity for DA D4, 5HT2c and 5HT7, a1-adrenergic and histamine H1 receptors. Thus, its activity as a partial DA agonist must be viewed against the background of other receptor activities.
