methiothepin and Hyperesthesia

methiothepin has been researched along with Hyperesthesia in 1 studies

Methiothepin: A serotonin receptor antagonist in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM used as an antipsychotic.
methiothepin : A dibenzothiepine that is 10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f]thiepine bearing additional methylthio and 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl substituents at positions 8 and 10 respectively. Potent 5-HT2 antagonist, also active as 5-HT1 antagonist. Differentiates 5-HT1D sub-types. Also displays affinity for rodent 5-HT5B, 5-HT5A, 5-HT7 and 5-HT6 receptors (pK1 values are 6.6, 7.0, 8.4 and 8.7 respectively).

Hyperesthesia: Increased sensitivity to cutaneous stimulation due to a diminished threshold or an increased response to stimuli.

"However, a similar apparent 'hyperalgesia' was seen at a non-noxious temperature of 38 degrees C."1.28Apparent hyperalgesic action of the 5-HT1A agonist, 8-OH-DPAT, in the rat reflects induction of spontaneous tail-flicks. ( Bervoets, K; Colpaert, FC; Millan, MJ, 1989)
