Schizophrenia drug molecule
Schizophrenia drug molecule. Computer model of a molecule of the schizophrenia drug quetiapine. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour- coded: carbon (light blue), hydrogen (white), oxygen (red), nitrogen (dark blue) and sulphur (yellow). Quetiapine, which is marketed under the name seroquel, is an atypical antipsychotic drug used to treat schizophrenia. It works by blocking receptors in the brain for the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, the overactivity of which is associated with schizophrenia. Quetiapine may also be used to treat bipolar disorder, anxiety and insomnia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of the schizophrenia drug molecule, quetiapine. The intricate structure is depicted with atoms represented as colorful spheres, each hue indicating a specific element: carbon in light blue, hydrogen in white, oxygen in red, nitrogen in dark blue, and sulphur in yellow. Quetiapine, commercially known as Seroquel, belongs to the class of atypical antipsychotic drugs and is primarily used for treating individuals with schizophrenia. The mechanism behind this medication involves blocking receptors within the brain responsible for dopamine and serotonin neurotransmitters. By doing so, it effectively combats the overactivity of these chemicals that are often associated with symptoms of schizophrenia. Interestingly enough, quetiapine also finds application beyond its primary use; it may be prescribed to patients dealing with bipolar disorder or seeking relief from anxiety and insomnia. This remarkable illustration not only highlights the molecular composition but also emphasizes its significance within biochemistry and pharmacology fields. Its role as an inhibitor makes it an essential compound utilized by medical professionals worldwide to address mental health concerns. Science Photo Library presents this stunning computer artwork that delves into the world of molecules and pharmaceuticals while shedding light on cutting-edge research aimed at improving our understanding of mental health disorders such as schizophrenia.
