Evaluation of Functional Selectivity of Haloperidol, Clozapine, and LASSBio-579, an Experimental Compound With Antipsychotic-Like Actions in Rodents, at G Protein and Arrestin Signaling Downstream of the Dopamine D2 Receptor

LASSBio-579, an N-phenylpiperazine antipsychotic lead compound, has been previously reported as a D2 receptor (D2R) ligand with antipsychotic-like activities in rodent models of schizophrenia. In order to better understand the molecular mechanism of action of LASSBio-579 and of its main metabolite,...
