General description

Clozapine N-oxide (CNO), inactive from of clozapine drug, activates G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). CNO serves as a synthetic ligand for engineered human muscarinic receptor. It elicits clozapine-like effects upon metabolic conversion. Clozapine conversion to CNO favors its passage through blood-brain barrier.
