Description Research Excerpts Clinical Trials Roles Classes Pathways Study Profile Bioassays Related Drugs Related Conditions Protein Interactions Research Growth Market Indicators

The compound you described, **1-[4-[4-[(phenylmethyl)amino]phenyl]-1-piperazinyl]ethanone**, is also known as **N-[4-(4-Acetylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]-N-methylbenzenamine** or **WAY-100635**.

It's important for research because it's a **selective agonist of the 5-HT1A receptor**. This means that it binds to and activates the 5-HT1A receptor, which is a type of serotonin receptor found in the brain and other parts of the body.

Here's why this is significant:

* **5-HT1A receptors are involved in various physiological and psychological processes**, including mood regulation, anxiety, sleep, appetite, and cognition.
* **WAY-100635 has shown promising effects in preclinical studies** for treating conditions related to these processes, such as depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia.
* **Its selectivity for the 5-HT1A receptor** makes it a valuable tool for researchers studying the role of this receptor in these conditions.

**Research involving WAY-100635 has been focused on understanding:**

* **The mechanism of action of the 5-HT1A receptor.**
* **The therapeutic potential of 5-HT1A agonists in treating psychiatric disorders.**
* **The development of new drugs targeting the 5-HT1A receptor.**

**However, it's important to note that WAY-100635 is not currently approved for clinical use.** While it shows potential, further research is needed to determine its safety and efficacy in humans.
