Trifluoperazine Dopamine Antagonist Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Trifluoperazine is a trifluoro-methyl phenothiazine derivative. Trifluoperazine blocks postsynaptic mesolimbic dopaminergic D1 and D2 receptors in the brain; depresses the release of hypothalamic and hypophyseal hormones and is believed to depress the reticular activating system thus affecting basal metabolism, body temperature, wakefulness, vasomotor tone, and emesis. It is indicated for the treatment of anxiety disorders, depressive symptoms secondary to anxiety and agitation.

Triflupromazine - Dopamine Antagonist Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Triflupromazine is a member of a class of drugs called phenothiazines, which are dopamine D1/D2 receptor antagonists. Triflupromazine is used particularly to control violent behavior during acute episodes of psychotic disorders. It can also be used to control severe nausea and vomiting, severe hiccups, and moderate to severe pain in some hospitalized patients. Triflupromazine acts on the central nervous system. The mechanism of the anti-emetic effect is due predominantly to blockage of the dopamine D2 neurotransmitter receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) and vomiting centre. Triflupromazine blocks the neurotransmitter dopamine and the vagus nerve in the gastrointestinal tract. Triflupromazine also binds the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (M1 and M2) and the tryptamine D receptors (5HT2B). Dopamine hypothesis states that dopamine abnormalities in the mesolimbic and prefrontal brain regions exist in schizophrenia.

Trifluridine Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Trifluridine is a fluorinated pyrimidine nucleoside that is structurally related to idoxuridine and an active antiviral agent in ophthalmic solutions that is mainly used in the treatment of primary keratoxonjunctivitis and recurrent epithelial keratitis due to herpes simplex virus. It displays effective antiviral activity against Herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2.
The mechanism of action of trifluridine as an antiviral agent has not been fully elucidated, but appears to involve the inhibition of viral replication. Trifluridine gets incorporated into viral DNA during replication in replacement of thymidine, which leads to the formation of defective proteins and an increased mutation rate. Less Viral DNA is transported into the nucleus, therefore, less viral DNA is integrated into the host DNA. Less viral proteins produced, fewer viruses can form.
Trifluridine also mediates antineoplastic activities via this mechanism; following uptake into cancer cells, trifluridine is rapidly phosphorylated by thymidine kinase to its active monophosphate form. It is further phosphorylated into trifluridine triphosphate, which is readily incorporated into the DNA of tumour cells in place of thymidine bases to perturb DNA function, DNA synthesis, and tumour cell proliferation.

Triflusal Action PathwayHomo sapiens
Triflusal is a 2-acetoxy-4-trifluorobenzoic acid chemically related to acetylsalicylic acid. This drug has antithrombotic effects by inhibiting irreversibly the cycloxygenase-1 (COX-1) in the platelets. It is indicated as prophylaxis of thromboembolic disorders (prevention of strokes and myocardial infarction). Trifusal binds to the prostaglandin G/H synthase 1, this inhibits the production of thromboxane-B2 in cells. It also acts on many other cellular targets like NF kappa B, which is a gene expression regulatory factor for cycloxygenase-a and cytokines. In addition, this drug induces the production of nitric oxide by binding as an agonist to the nitric oxide synthase. The high level of nitric oxide results in vasodilatation. Trifusal is administered as an oral tablet.
