Application

2-Bromo-α-ergocryptine methanesulfonate salt has been used:
  • as D2 agonist in bird zebra finches[1]
  • for Prl secretion inhibitor in mice[2]
  • for the inhibition of motility in planaria worm[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bromocriptine is an ergot alkaloid and a dopamine D2 receptor agonist. It is prescribed for Parkinson′s disorder, hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhoea.[4] It modulates β cells of the pancreas from insulin hypersecretion and improves the metabolic profile in type 2 diabetes patients with obesity.[5] It also modulates glutamate release by glutamate transporter,GLT-1.[6]
