Metoprine (BW 197U) is a potent histamine N-methyltransferase (HMT) inhibitor. Metoprine, a diaminopyrimidine derivative, can cross the blood-brain barrier and increase brain histamine levels by inhibiting HMT[1][2]. Metoprine is an antifolate and antitumor agent[3].

Metoprine (BW 197U; 2-10 mg/kg; IP) ameliorates the memory deficits induced by nucleus basalis magnocellularis (NBM) lesions in a dose-dependent manner[2].Intraperitoneal administration of Metoprine produces various behavioral effects, including decreases in food intake and increases in water consumption[1]. Animal Model: Male Sprague-dawley rats (200-280g)[2]
