LY 344864 is a selective, orally active 5-HT1F receptor agonist with a Ki of 6 nM. LY 344864 is a full agonist producing an effect similar in magnitude to serotonin itself. LY 344864 can cross the blood brain barrier to some extent[1].
LY 344864 binds to human 5-HT1F, 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, 5-HT1E, 5-HT3A, 5-HT2B, 5-HT2C, 5-HT7, rat α1-adrenergic, rat α2-adrenergic receptors with Kis of 0.006, 0.530, 0.549, 0.575, 1.415, 3.935, 1.695, 3.499, 4.851, 5.06 and 3.69 μM, respectively[1].
LY 344864 is a inducer of mitochondrial biogenesis[2].
LY 344864 (0-10 ng/kg; p.o. or i.v.; once) inhibits neurogenic dural inflammation in rat migraine pain model[1].
LY 344864 (1 mg/kg; i.v.; once) can cross the blood brain barrier to some extent in rats[1].
LY 344864 (2 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 14 days) attenuates dopaminergic neuron loss and improved behavioral endpoints in a Parkinson’s disease mouse model[2].
