7-Desmethyl-3-hydroxyagomelatine is a metabolite of Agomelatine with reduced activity compared with Agomelatine. Agomelatine (S20098; BAN, rINN; Valdoxan, Melitor, Thymanax) is a potent and specific agonist of MT1 and MT2 receptors with Kis of 0.1, 0.06, 0.12, and 0.27 nM for CHO-hMT1, HEK-hMT1, CHO-hMT2, and HEK-hMT2, respectively. It is a unique antidepressant and is developed for treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). It shows low affinities to cloned human 5-HT2A and 5-HT1A. In the in vivo studies, agomelatine causes increase of dopamine and noradrenaline levels via blocking the inhibitory input of 5-HT2C.

A novel sensitive and selective LC-MS/MS method for the determination of agomelatine, 7-desmethyl-agomelatine and 3-hydroxy-agomelatine in human plasma was developed and validated. After simple protein precipitation, the analytes were separated on a Phenomenex ODS3 column (4.6×150 mm, 5μm, Phenomenex, USA) with mobile phase consisted of methanol and 5mM ammonium formate solution (containing 0.2% formic acid) at a ratio of 70:30 (v/v) with a flow rate of 0.8mL/min. The MS acquisition was performed in multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) mode with a positive electrospray ionization source. The mass transitions monitored were m/z 244.1→185.1, m/z 230.1→171.1, m/z 260.1→201.1 and m/z 180.1→110.1 for agomelatine, 7-desmethyl-agomelatine, 3-hydroxy-agomelatine and internal standard (phenacetin), respectively. The method was validated for specificity, linearity and lower limit of quantification, precision and accuracy, extraction recovery, matrix effect and stability. The calibration curves for agomelatine, 7-desmethyl-agomelatine and 3-hydroxy-agomelatine in human plasma were linear over concentration ranges of 0.0457-100ng/mL, 0.1372-300ng/mL and 0.4572-1000ng/mL, respectively. Intra- and inter-day precisions and accuracies data met the acceptance criteria of FDA guideline for bioanalytical method validation. The developed method has been successfully applied to a bioequivalence study in healthy Chinese volunteers.[1]

Additional Infomation |
Despite advances in understanding potential disease mechanisms and in developing novel therapeutic approaches to the treatment of major depressive disorder, the disease continues to carry an enormous personal, social, and economic burden. Agomelatine represents an important opportunity to advance the treatment of depression. It is a melatonergic (MT(1) and MT(2)) agonist and serotonergic (5HT(2C)) antagonist. Evidence from animal models of depression, complements emerging clinical data. In a dose range of 25-50 mg daily, agomelatine is an effective antidepressant with a very favorable side-effect profile. In particular, sleep restorative action in the absence of sedation and minimal effect on sexual function suggests that agomelatine represents a worthwhile treatment alternative for patients with major depressive disorder.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
