risperidone and Astrocytoma

risperidone has been researched along with Astrocytoma in 1 studies

Risperidone: A selective blocker of DOPAMINE D2 RECEPTORS and SEROTONIN 5-HT2 RECEPTORS that acts as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It has been shown to improve both positive and negative symptoms in the treatment of SCHIZOPHRENIA.
risperidone : A member of the class of pyridopyrimidines that is 2-methyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one carrying an additional 2-[4-(6-fluoro-1,2-benzoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]ethyl group at position 2.

Astrocytoma: Neoplasms of the brain and spinal cord derived from glial cells which vary from histologically benign forms to highly anaplastic and malignant tumors. Fibrillary astrocytomas are the most common type and may be classified in order of increasing malignancy (grades I through IV). In the first two decades of life, astrocytomas tend to originate in the cerebellar hemispheres; in adults, they most frequently arise in the cerebrum and frequently undergo malignant transformation.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To test if low doses of antipsychotic drugs can modify QKI mRNA expression, human astrocytoma (U343) and oligodendroglioma (HOG) cell lines were treated with five different antipsychotic drugs including Haloperidol, Aripiprazole, Clozapine, Olanzapine and Risperidone."7.75Haloperidol changes mRNA expression of a QKI splice variant in human astrocytoma cells. ( Carlström, EL; Jazin, E; Jiang, L; Saetre, P, 2009)
