(±)-Sulpiride is an atypical antipsychotic that binds to dopamine D2 and D3 receptors (Kis = 4.2 and 15 nM, respectively).{41323} It is selective for dopamine D2 and D3 over D1 receptors and the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, and 5-HT3 (Kis = >10,000 nM). (±)-Sulpiride (0.5 or 1 ng per animal) increases attentional accuracy and decreases latency to respond correctly, the number of omissions, and impulsivity in the 5-choice serial reaction time task (5CSRTT) when infused directly into the nucleus accumbens in a rat model of prefrontal cortex lesion-induced attentional dysfunction.{46039} It increases cortical and striatal demethylation of hypermethylated reelin and GAD67 promoters in mice when administered at doses ranging from 12.5 to 50 μmol/kg twice per day for three days.{46040} Formulations containing (±)-sulpiride have been used in the treatment of schizophrenia.
