| Targets |
Caroverine hydrochloride targets NMDA and AMPA glutamate receptors (iGluRs). It acts as a non-selective, competitive, and reversible antagonist at these receptors. Additionally, it acts as a class B calcium-channel blocker and has antioxidant properties.

| ln Vitro |
In rat hindquarter preparations, carvacrol (1 μM; 10 min pretreatment) decreases the pressor response to KCl (80 mM) and norepinephrine (1 μM). In isolated rat aortas, carvacine dramatically reduces the contraction caused by KCl (40 mM) [3].
In vitro, Caroverine hydrochloride inhibits the pressor response to KCl (80 mM) and noradrenaline (1 μM) in the rat hindquarter preparation at a concentration of 1 μM (pretreated for 10 min). As an NMDA and AMPA receptor antagonist, it inhibits excitatory neurotransmission. Its calcium-blocking activity contributes to vasorelaxant effects. |
| ln Vivo |
Caroverine (1.44 mg/rat; subcutaneous injection; 1.0 mL/h for 72 hours) can reduce impulse noise-induced hearing loss in rats [4].
In vivo, Caroverine hydrochloride has been investigated for the treatment of inner ear tinnitus. It has also been used clinically in some countries (e.g., Switzerland) as a muscle relaxant (Spasmium, Tinnitin, Tinnex) to relieve spasms in smooth muscles. Its combined ion-channel and receptor-targeting actions make it useful for exploring neuroprotective and auditory therapeutic strategies. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The binding of Caroverine hydrochloride to NMDA and AMPA receptors is typically assessed using radioligand binding assays. Membranes from brain tissue or cells expressing recombinant receptors are incubated with a radiolabeled ligand (e.g., [³H]-MK-801 for NMDA or [³H]-AMPA for AMPA) in the presence of varying concentrations of the compound. IC50 or Ki values are calculated from competition binding curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for Caroverine hydrochloride involve the use of neuronal cell cultures or cell lines expressing NMDA and AMPA receptors. Receptor-mediated calcium influx is measured using fluorescent calcium indicators (e.g., Fura-2 or Fluo-4). Cells are pre-incubated with the compound and then stimulated with glutamate or specific agonists. The reduction in calcium influx is quantified to determine antagonist potency.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: SD (SD (Sprague-Dawley)) rats (250-300 g) of either sex underwent pulsed noise exposure [4]
Doses: 1.44 mg/rat Doses: 20 mg/mL; sc 1.0 mL/h for 72 hrs (hrs (hours)) Experimental Results: Significant protection of the cochlea from impulse noise damage. In vivo studies of Caroverine hydrochloride are conducted in animal models of tinnitus and neurotoxicity. The compound is administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or oral gavage. Auditory function is assessed using auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing. Neuroprotection is evaluated in models of excitotoxicity by assessing neuronal survival and tissue damage. Smooth muscle relaxation is assessed in vascular or intestinal preparations. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of Caroverine hydrochloride (molecular weight 401.93) are evaluated in preclinical species. The compound has been used clinically, indicating favorable PK properties for oral administration. Plasma concentrations are measured using HPLC or LC-MS/MS to determine key PK parameters including oral bioavailability and half-life.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Caroverine hydrochloride has been used clinically in some countries as a muscle relaxant (Spasmium, Tinnitin, Tinnex). Standard toxicology assessments have been conducted as part of its clinical use. The compound is generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. Specific toxicity data is available from clinical use and preclinical studies, though not detailed in public sources.
