Pramipexole (Item No. 11981) is an agonist of dopamine receptors that has applications in Parkinson’s disease and other disorders.{21783,21784,21785,21786} Pramipexole is usually available as a mixture of enantiomers, with the majority of the dopamine receptor-dependent activity resulting from the (S) form.{29401} (R)-Pramipexole is an enantiomer of pramipexole that is ~100-fold less active than the (S) form as a dopamine receptor agonist.{29401,29399} For this reason, it can be used as a negative control for the (S) form in the study of dopamine receptors. Both isoforms are antioxidants that target mitochondria to prevent apoptosis.{29401,29402,29398,29403} This cytoprotective effect of (R)-pramipexole, without dopaminergic side effects, suggests utility in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.{29401,29400}
