| Targets |
Modoflaner primarily targets gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-gated chloride channels in the nervous system of parasites. It functions as a GABA-gated chloride channel blocker, allosterically modulating these channels and leading to increased neuronal excitability, paralysis, and death of target pests. This mechanism of action is characteristic of the meta-diamide class of insecticides.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Modoflaner demonstrates significant insecticidal activity in vitro against a range of pests. At concentrations of 0.04, 0.2, and 1 μg/cm², it achieved over 90% mortality against ticks and fleas. In vitro injection tests (0.8, 0.16, and 0.32 μg/individual) showed 100% acaricidal activity. In vitro feeding tests at doses of 4, 0.8, 0.16, 0.032, and 0.064 ppm resulted in over 95% flea mortality. At 100 ppm, it exhibited over 70% mortality against Spodoptera litura, diamondback moth, and small brown planthopper.
|
| ln Vivo |
Modoflaner exhibits potent in vivo activity as an antiparasitic agent for controlling external parasites in animals, particularly fleas and ticks. It is effective in veterinary applications for pets (cats, dogs), poultry, and ornamental fish. As an agricultural insecticide, it demonstrates in vivo efficacy against lepidopteran pests (e.g., Helicoverpa armigera, rice stem borer, corn borer) and homopteran pests (e.g., planthoppers, aphids) on various crops including fruits, vegetables, and rice.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for modoflaner typically involve evaluating its interaction with GABA-gated chloride channels. These assays measure the compound's ability to allosterically modulate and block these channels, often using radioligand binding or electrophysiological techniques on insect neuronal membranes. The compound's binding affinity and inhibitory potency can be determined by assessing its effect on chloride ion flux or by measuring displacement of a known channel blocker.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for modoflaner involve treating cultured insect cells or parasite tissues with varying concentrations of the compound. Efficacy is assessed by measuring cell viability, paralysis, or mortality. For example, assays may use tick or flea cell lines, or primary cultures of insect neurons. The compound's ability to induce neuronal hyperexcitability and subsequent cell death is quantified, and EC50 or LC50 values are determined from dose-response curves.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for modoflaner involve administering the compound to animal models infested with parasites (e.g., fleas, ticks) or to crop plants infected with pests. Efficacy is evaluated by measuring parasite mortality, reduction in infestation levels, or protection of crops from pest damage. Studies may involve topical application, oral administration, or injection, followed by monitoring of clinical signs and parasitological outcomes over a defined period.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for modoflaner are not extensively documented. As a lipophilic compound with a molecular weight of 715.23, it is expected to have good tissue penetration and systemic distribution following administration. The compound's long-lasting efficacy suggests a favorable pharmacokinetic profile with sustained exposure at target sites. Further studies are needed to fully characterize its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) properties in target animals.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for modoflaner are limited in the available literature. As a meta-diamide insecticide targeting GABA-gated chloride channels, its selectivity for invertebrate versus vertebrate channels contributes to a favorable safety profile for mammals. The compound is intended for veterinary and agricultural use, with no reported human therapeutic applications. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound in research settings.
