GZ-793A is an orally active and selective vesicular monoamine transporter-2 (VMAT2) inhibitor, with an Ki of 0.029 µM. GZ-793A inhibits the neurochemical effects of methamphetamine (METH)-induced dopamine release. GZ-793A can be used for research of METH addiction[1][2][3].
GZ-793A (30, 60, 120 or 240 mg/kg; p.o.; once) decreases the number of METH infusions self-administered across each time interval evaluats in a dose-dependent manner[1].
GZ-793A (1-100 µM; 90 min) inhibits METH (5 µM)-evoked fractional dopamine releases[2].
