Biologische Aktivität
Lorediplon is a ligand for α1 subunit-containing GABAA receptors. In vivo, lorediplon inhibits spontaneous motor activity and increases duration of sleep in mice (ED50s = 0.13 and 1.2 mg/kg, respectively). It selectively inhibits spontaneous motor activity, which is driven by α1 subunit-containing GABAA receptors, over modification of muscular tone in mice, an α2 subunit-containing GABAA receptor-stimulated activity. Lorediplon (0.13 and 1.2 mg/kg) also decreases latency to slow wave sleep (SWS) and paradoxical sleep (PS) in mice. Formulations containing lorediplon have been used in the treatment of insomnia.
