Biological activities

Thorazine is a dopamine receptor antagonist. Thorazine possesses additional antiadrenergic, antiserotonergic, anticholinergic and antihistaminergic properties. Thorazine belongs to the typical antipsychotic class of medications. Thorazine is used to treat schizophrenia. Thorazine inhibits CaM with an IC50 of 2.75 µM.[1] Thorazine induces inflammatory reaction.[2] In the dog, thorazine is metabolized almost completely but, partly because of its extensive localization in various tissues, especially brain, relatively slowly.[3] Thorazine significantly opposes ketamine dose-dependently reduced prepulse inhibition (PPI).[4]

Protocols

Thorazine is dissolved in physiological saline.[5]
