Biological Activity for BU 224 hydrochloride

BU 224 hydrochloride is a high affinity ligand for the imidazoline I₂ binding site (K_i = 2.1 nM). Putative I₂ antagonist; antagonizes the effects of imidazoline ligands on morphine antinociception. Produces ipsiversive rotational behavior in rats with a full 6-OHDA lesion of the nigrostriatal tract.
