The inhibition of 3H-SCH 23390 (D1), 3H-spiperone (D2), and 3H-YM-09151 (D2) binding to human putamen membranes by four antipsychotic drugs was studied. Two substituted benzamides, (-)-sulpiride and YM-09151, weakly inhibited specific 3H-SCH 23390 binding to D1 receptor sites. The inhibition of 3H-SCH 23390 binding by haloperidol and chlorpromazine was also weak in the 10(-8)-10(-6) M range. All four drugs potently inhibited 3H-spiperone binding, with the following rank order of potency: haloperidol greater than YM-09151 greater than (-)-sulpiride greater than chlorpromazine. 3H-YM-09151 binding was potently displaced by YM-09151 (10(-9) M) and weakly displaced by (-)-sulpiride (10(-7) M). The potency of inhibition by haloperidol and chlorpromazine was in the 10(-8) M order.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011699	Putamen	The largest and most lateral of the BASAL GANGLIA lying between the lateral medullary lamina of the GLOBUS PALLIDUS and the EXTERNAL CAPSULE. It is part of the neostriatum and forms part of the LENTIFORM NUCLEUS along with the GLOBUS PALLIDUS.	Nucleus Putamen,Nucleus Putamens,Putamen, Nucleus,Putamens,Putamens, Nucleus
D011954	Receptors, Dopamine	Cell-surface proteins that bind dopamine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells.	Dopamine Receptors,Dopamine Receptor,Receptor, Dopamine
D002746	Chlorpromazine	The prototypical phenothiazine antipsychotic drug. Like the other drugs in this class chlorpromazine's antipsychotic actions are thought to be due to long-term adaptation by the brain to blocking DOPAMINE RECEPTORS. Chlorpromazine has several other actions and therapeutic uses, including as an antiemetic and in the treatment of intractable hiccup.

D003864	Depression, Chemical	The decrease in a measurable parameter of a PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS, including cellular, microbial, and plant; immunological, cardiovascular, respiratory, reproductive, urinary, digestive, neural, musculoskeletal, ocular, and skin physiological processes; or METABOLIC PROCESS, including enzymatic and other pharmacological processes, by a drug or other chemical.

D006220	Haloperidol	A phenyl-piperidinyl-butyrophenone that is used primarily to treat SCHIZOPHRENIA and other PSYCHOSES. It is also used in schizoaffective disorder, DELUSIONAL DISORDERS, ballism, and TOURETTE SYNDROME (a drug of choice) and occasionally as adjunctive therapy in INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and the chorea of HUNTINGTON DISEASE. It is a potent antiemetic and is used in the treatment of intractable HICCUPS. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p279)	Haldol
