Investigational Drug Details
Drug ID: | D054 |
Drug Name: | Reserpine |
Synonyms: | |
Type: | small molecule |
DrugBank ID: | DB00206 |
DrugBank Description: | An alkaloid found in the roots of Rauwolfia serpentina and R. vomitoria. Reserpine inhibits the uptake of norepinephrine into storage vesicles resulting in depletion of catecholamines and serotonin from central and peripheral axon terminals. It has been used as an antihypertensive and an antipsychotic as well as a research tool, but its adverse effects limit its clinical use. |

CasNo: | 50-55-5 |
Repositioning for NAFLD: | Yes |
SMILES: | [H][C@]12C[C@@H](OC(=O)C3=CC(OC)=C(OC)C(OC)=C3)[C@H](OC)[C@@H](C(=O)OC)[C@@]1([H])C[C@@]1([H])N(CCC3=C1NC1=C3C=CC(OC)=C1)C2 |

InChiKey: | QEVHRUUCFGRFIF-MDEJGZGSSA-N |
Molecular Weight: | 608.6787 |
DrugBank Targets: | Synaptic vesicular amine transporter; Chromaffin granule amine transporter; Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 5 |
DrugBank MoA: | Reserpine's mechanism of action is through inhibition of the ATP/Mg<sup>2+</sup> pump responsible for the sequestering of neurotransmitters into storage vesicles located in the presynaptic neuron. The neurotransmitters that are not sequestered in the storage vesicle are readily metabolized by monoamine oxidase (MAO) causing a reduction in catecholamines. |
DrugBank Pharmacology: | Reserpine is an adrenergic blocking agent used to treat mild to moderate hypertension via the disruption of norepinephrine vesicular storage. The antihypertensive actions of Reserpine are a result of its ability to deplete catecholamines from peripheral sympathetic nerve endings. These substances are normally involved in controlling heart rate, force of cardiac contraction and peripheral resistance. |
