Bioactivity | Remacemide hydrochloride (FPL 12924AA), a moderate inhibitor of the Na+ channel, is a weak uncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist with IC50s of 68 μM and 76 μM for MK-801 binding and NMDA currents, respectively[1]. Remacemide hydrochloride is an anticonvulsant agent[2]. |
Target | IC50: 68-76 μM (NMDA receptor)IC50:160.6 μM(sodium channel) |
Invitro | Remacemide (hydrochloride) (0-1000 μM) blocks voltage-gated Na+ channels in rat cortical synaptosomes in a concentration-dependent manner,with an IC50 value of 160.6 μM[2]. |
In Vivo | Treatment with low- and high-dose Remacemide (100 mg/kg and 150 mg/kg) delays the acquisition of audio/visual discrimination (AVD) task performance in female Sprague-Dawley rats[3]. Animal Model: |
