product name Chlorpromazine HCl
Description: Chlorpromazine HCl, the Hydrochloride salt form of chlorpromazine, is a dopamine and potassium channel inhibitor with IC50 of 6.1 and 16 μM for inward-rectifying K+ currents and time-independent outward currents. Chlorpromazine HCl is a phenothiazine and traditional antipsychotic agent with anti-emetic activity. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride exerts its antipsychotic effect by blocking postsynaptic dopamine receptors in cortical and limbic areas of the brain, thereby preventing the excess of dopamine in the brain.

In vitro activity: Chlorpromazine affects miniature IPSCs (mIPSCs) by decreasing the binding (kon) and by increasing the unbinding (koff) rates of GABAARs. Chlorpromazine modulates activated TRPA1 currents in a voltage-dependent way, leading to a block at positive potentials and an increased open probability at negative potentials.

In Vivo | Chlorpromazine independently down-regulates the production of various T cell-derived lymphokines (IL-2, IFN-gamma, IL-4, TNF, and GM-CSF) and up-regulates the secretion of IL-10 in an in vivo model of acute superantigen-driven immune activation. Chlorpromazine -mediated amplification of the SEB-driven Chlorpromazine secretion is accompanied by an enhanced IL-10 mRNA accumulation. Chlorpromazine protects mice, normal or adrenalectomized, and guinea pigs against lethality of LPS, and inhibits TNF serum levels. Chlorpromazine protects against LPS lethality when administered 30 minutes (min) before, simultaneously, or up to 10 min after LPS and is ineffective when given 30 min after LPS, paralleling the inhibitory effect on TNF production. Chlorpromazine significantly inhibits LPS lethality and hepatotoxicity in mice sensitized to LPS toxicity by actinomycin D, whereas under these conditions DEX is inactive. Chlorpromazine protects brain tissue from hypoxia-induced irreversible loss of synaptic transmission in rats. Chlorpromazine also significantly delays the occurrence of the hypoxia-induced spreading depression (SD) in rats. |
