Description: Pimavanserin (ACP-103)(ACP-103) is an effective and specific 5-HT2A receptor inverse agonist (mean pIC50: 8.7, in the cell-based functional assay). Pimavanserin is an atypical antipsychotic used in the treatment of hallucinations and psychosis in patients with Parkinson disease. Target: 5-HT Receptor....

Pimavanserin is an inverse agonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT2A (IC50 = 1.86 nM, Ki = 0.5 nM). It is selective for 5-HT2A over a panel of 65 ion channels, enzymes, and receptors (Kis = >100 nM). Pimavanserin reduces head-twitch behavior and prepulse inhibition deficits induced by the 5-HT2A...
