A direct dopamine agonist, in clinical use for treatment of dopaminergic system dysfunction. Recent work suggests that it is selective for the D3 subtype, for which it has 20 times higher affinity than for D2, and possesses no significant affinity for D1 receptors. | [Uses]
Piribedil dihydrochloride is a potent and orally active dopamine D2 and dopamine D3 agonist. Piribedil dihydrochloride is also a α2-adrenoceptors antagonist. Piribedil dihydrochloride can inhibit MLL1 methyltransferase activity (EC50: 0.18 μM). Piribedil dihydrochloride has the potential for the research of parkinson's disease, circulatory disorders, cancers[1][2][3][4]. | [in vivo]
Piribedil dihydrochloride (intraperitoneal injection, 5, 15, 40 mg/kg ) alleviates the L-DOPA-induced dyskinesias in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease[2].
Piribedil dihydrochloride (oral gavage, 4-5 mg/kg, daily for 2 weeks) increases locomotor activity and reversal of motor deficits in adult common marmosets[3].
Piribedil dihydrochloride (oral gavage, 150 mg/kg, daily for 21 days) inhibits MLL-r tumor growth and decreases the expression of MLL1 target genes in MV4;11 tumor xenografts[4]. | Animal Model: | Rat model of Parkinson’s disease[2] | | Dosage: | 5, 15, 40 mg/kg | | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection, administered 5 min before administration of L-DOPA. | | Result: | Reduced turning behaviour and AD (axial dystonia), OD (orolingual dyskinesia) and FD (forelimb dyskinesia) at 5 and 40 mg/kg.
Increased LD (locomotive dyskinesias) at the 40 mg/kg.

| Animal Model: | Adult common marmosets[3] | | Dosage: | 4-5 mg/kg | | Administration: | Oral gavage, daily for 2 weeks | | Result: | Increased vigilance and alertness and reversed the downregulation of preprotachykinin mRNA induced by MPTP in rostral and caudal striatum. |
