Brexpiprazole-d8 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of brexpiprazole (Item No. 22906) by GC- or LC-MS. Brexpiprazole is a serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine receptor modulator that has high affinity (Ki = <1 nM) for 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A serotonin, dopamine D2L, and α1B-, and α2C-adrenergic receptors in CHO cell membranes expressing the human receptors.1 It acts as a partial agonist of 5-HT1A, D2L, and D3 receptors (EC50s = 0.49, 4.0, and 2.8 nM, respectively) and an antagonist of 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, as well as α1B- and α2C-adrenergic receptors (IC50s = 6.5, 14, 0.66, and 63 nM, respectively) in vitro. In vivo, brexpiprazole dose-dependently reduces conditioned avoidance response (CAR) time, inhibits locomoter hyperactivity induced by apomorphine (Item No. 16094) and amphetamine, and reverses cognitive defects induced by subchronic PCP administration in rats.2 It also reduces apomorphine-induced eye blinking in cynomolgus monkeys. Formulations containing brexpiprazole have been used in the treatment of schizophrenia and major depressive disorder.
