BIMU 8 is an agonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT4 (Ki = 69 nM).1 It also binds 5-HT3 receptors (Ki = 0.36 nM). It stimulates cAMP formation in primary mouse embryonic colliculi neurons with an EC50 value of 72 nM.2 BIMU 8 (30, 40, and 60 nmol/animal, i.c.v.) induces acetylcholine release in the rat frontal cortex.3 It increases postprandial antral and colonic motility in conscious dogs when administered at doses of 0.1, 0.3, and 1 mg/kg.4 BIMU 8 (20 mg/kg, i.p.) also increases the latency to withdraw in the paw pressure test in rats.5
