Chemical compound
Nuciferine is an alkaloid found within the plants Nymphaea caerulea and Nelumbo nucifera.[1][2]
Preliminary psychopharmacological research in 1978 was unable to conclusively determine the compound's classification regarding dopamine-receptor activity.[3] On one hand, investigative studies found evidence of behavior traditionally associated with dopamine-receptorstimulation: stereotypy, increase in spontaneous motor activity, inhibition of conditioned avoidance response, and an increase in pain sensitivity resulting in an inhibition of morphine analgesia.[3] On the other hand, these early investigative studies also found evidence of behavior traditionally associated with dopamine-receptorblockade: decrease of spontaneous motor activity, chills, catalepsy, trance-like states of consciousness.[3]
