Rotigotine is a non-selective dopamine receptor agonist with pEC50 values of 9.6, 10.4, 8.2, 7.7, and 7.7 for D1, D2, D3, D4, and D5, respectively.1 It demonstrates a high-affinity for D1, D2, and D3 with lesser affinity for D4 and D5 receptor subtypes.1 This binding profile is similar to that of apomorphine (Item No. 16094) and pergolide but differentiated from that of pramipexole (Item No. 11981) and ropinirole, which have a more narrow profile of receptor specificity.1 Each of these agonists demonstrates anti-Parkinsonian effects in animal and clinical models through their ability to directly activate dopamine receptors.1
WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
1. Rotigotine is a potent agonist at dopamine D1 receptors as well as at dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. Br. J. Pharmacol. 172(4), 1124-1135 (2015).
