Quinelorane dihydrochloride is a synthetic chemical compound used in neuroscience research for its role as a dopamine agonist with high affinity for the D2-like family of dopamine receptors. It is utilized in studies examining the dopaminergic system and its influence on behavior, neurological processes, and the regulation of movement. Research involving quinelorane dihydrochloride helps in elucidating the pathophysiology of disorders associated with dopamine dysregulation. In addition, it is applied in studies aimed at understanding the reward pathways in the brain and the mechanisms of addiction. The compound′s selectivity for dopamine receptors makes it a useful tool for in vitro assays to investigate receptor functions, signaling pathways, and potential regulatory effects on other neurotransmitter systems.
