BGC20-761 

BGC20-761 is a selecvtive 5-HT6 and dopamine receptor antagonist (human receptor K_i values: 5-HT6 (20 nM), 5-HT2A (69 nM), D2 (140 nM). BGC20-761, can enhance long-term memory. BGC20-761 has potential utility as an antipsychotic agent^[1].

BGC20-761 has highly potent and selective 5-HT6 receptor antagonist activity; rat K_i values for other rats receptors: 5-HT2A (470 nM), 5-HT2C (675 nM), D2, D3, D4, DAT and SERT (>10,000 nM)^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

BGC20-761 enhances memory consolidation and reverses scopolamine-induced memory deficit in social and visuospatial memory tasks through a 5-HT6 receptor-mediated mechanism. BGC20-761 (2.5 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg; i.p.) alone has no effect on social recognition in young rats, however, at doses of 5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg i.p, BGC20-761 dose-dependently reverses a deficit of social recognition induced by Scopolamine (0.4 mg/kg i.p.)^[1].
