| Targets |
Amlodipine mesylate targets voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels, which are present in vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. By blocking these channels, it inhibits the influx of calcium ions into cells, leading to vasodilation and reduced peripheral vascular resistance. This mechanism results in a decrease in blood pressure and an increase in oxygen supply to the heart muscle, making it effective for treating hypertension and angina pectoris.

| ln Vitro |
BrdU incorporation rates in A431 cells were lowered by amlodipine mesylate (20–40 μM; 48 hours) to 68.6% and 26.3%, respectively, at doses of 20 and 30 μM [3]. Amlodipine mesylate (30 μM; 1 hour pretreatment) dramatically reduced the rise in [Ca2+]i in A431 cells caused by uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) [3]. In Fluo-3-loaded cells, amlodipine mesylate (30 μM) suppresses Thapsigargin-induced store-operated Ca2+ influx [3].
In vitro, amlodipine mesylate acts as a calcium channel blocker, inhibiting the voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels. Its activity is typically assessed using patch-clamp electrophysiology or calcium flux assays in cell lines expressing these channels. The compound demonstrates potent inhibition of calcium influx, which correlates with its vasodilatory and antihypertensive effects. It has a molecular formula of C21H29ClN2O8S and a molecular weight of 504.98. |
| ln Vivo |
Amlodipine mesylate (5 mg/kg/day; subcutaneous injection for 2 weeks) can dramatically reduce systolic blood pressure (SBP) in VSMC ATP2B1 KO mice [4]. Amlodipine mesylate (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneally given once daily for 20 days) can considerably decrease tumor growth and lengthen the longevity of A431 tumor-bearing mice [3].
In vivo, amlodipine mesylate is an orally active antihypertensive and antianginal agent. It is used for the treatment of hypertension and angina pectoris. Studies have shown that it significantly decreases blood pressure. It can also be used to study hypertension and cancer. Its long half-life supports once-daily dosing, and it is effective in reducing blood pressure over a 24-hour period. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro receptor binding/functional assay for amlodipine mesylate typically involves measuring its ability to inhibit calcium influx through L-type calcium channels. These assays can be performed using patch-clamp techniques on cells expressing the channels or using fluorescent calcium indicators to measure intracellular calcium levels. The compound's potency (IC50) is determined from concentration-response curves. Its selectivity can be assessed by testing against other ion channels.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for amlodipine mesylate assess its effects on calcium signaling and cell function. Vascular smooth muscle cells or cardiac myocytes are treated with the compound, and intracellular calcium levels are measured using fluorescent dyes. Its effects on cell proliferation, migration, or contraction can also be assessed. These assays demonstrate the compound's functional activity as a calcium channel blocker in a relevant cellular context.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: ATP2B1loxP/loxP mice [4]
Doses: 5 mg/kg/day Route of Administration: subcutaneously (sc) (sc) implanted osmotic pump for 2 weeks Experimental Results: Dramatically lowered blood pressure. In vivo animal studies for amlodipine mesylate have been conducted in various animal models of hypertension. In one study, it was administered subcutaneously via an implanted osmotic pump at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks, resulting in a significant decrease in blood pressure. Other studies have evaluated its effects on cardiac function, vascular remodeling, and renal protection in hypertensive animal models. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for amlodipine mesylate indicate that it is well-absorbed after oral administration with high bioavailability and a long half-life, supporting once-daily dosing. It is extensively metabolized in the liver and excreted primarily in urine. Its pharmacokinetic profile is similar to that of amlodipine besilate, with a slow onset and long duration of action, making it suitable for chronic use in hypertension and angina.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Amlodipine mesylate is generally well-tolerated, with a safety profile similar to other dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. Common adverse effects include peripheral edema, headache, dizziness, and flushing. It should be used with caution in patients with severe hepatic impairment. Its safety has been established through extensive clinical use for hypertension and angina pectoris.
