Novel 4,5-Dihydrothiazole-Phenylpiperazine Derivatives: Synthesis, Docking Studies and Pharmacological Evaluation as Serotonergic Agents. [PDF]
The synthesis of a new series of 4,5‐dihydrothiazol‐2‐ylphenylpiperazine derivatives as serotoninergic ligands is described and tested for their affinity toward 5‐HT1A, 5‐HT2A,and 5‐HT2C and selected for further in vivo assays to determine their functional activity. The pharmacological studies highlight that among the developed derivatives, FG‐7 and FG‐

Modeling interactions of α1a adrenergic receptor and different arylpiperazine ligands
Molecular modelling studies were undertaken in order to identify key interactions of selected ligands with α1A adrenergic receptor, responsible for their binding and presumably receptor activation. The previously made model of α1A adrenergic receptor was

Molecular Modeling of 5HT2AReceptor – Arylpiperazine Ligands Interactions
In this paper, we report the molecular modeling of the 5HT(2A) receptor and the molecular docking of arylpiperazine-like ligands. The focus of the research was on explaining the effects the ligand structure has on the binding properties of the 5HT(2A ...
