AHR-1709 is an experimental antipsychotic of the tryptamine family which was never marketed.[1][2] It is a cyclized tryptamine, more specifically an analogue of pip-tryptamine.[1][2]

Pharmacology

[edit]

Pharmacodynamics

[edit]

AHR-1709 shows high affinity for the serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors (Ki = 27–44 nM and 4.8 nM, respectively)[2][3] and for the dopamine D2 receptor (Ki = 81 nM).[4] It may act as a serotonin 5-HT1A receptor antagonist.[3] The drug also shows high affinity for ketanserin-labeled serotonin 5-HT2A receptors (Ki = 9.33–12.6 nM) and is a potent antagonist of these receptors (A2 = 24.6–120 nM).[5][6]

The drug produces antipsychotic-like effects in rodents, including reversal of hyperlocomotion but without induction of catalepsy, antagonism of stereotypy, or elevation of prolactin levels.[1][7][8] AHR-1709 also produces antiemetic effects in rodents.[1]

It is a derivative of the dopaminergic neurotoxin MPTP and is a weak dopamine reuptake inhibitor similarly but with 23-fold higher potency (IC50Tooltip half-maximal inhibitory concentration = 4,200 nM and 95,200 nM, respectively).[9] However, unlike MPTP, AHR-1709 did not produce dopaminergic neurotoxicity in rodents.[9]

Chemistry

[edit]

A number of derivatives of AHR-1709 have been described.[7][2][3] An analogue of AHR-1709 with an elongated side chain is EMD-23448.[4] AHR-1709 is also structurally similar to pertines like oxypertine.[7]

History

[edit]

AHR-1709 was first described in the scientific literature by 1978.[1]
