Product Description

Bromocriptine Mesylate (CB154) is a dopamine D2/3 agonist (with pKi of 8.05±0.2 for D2) for the treatment of pituitary tumors, Parkinson's disease (PD), hyperprolactinaemia, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, and type 2 diabetes.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
D2 receptor( Ki = 12.2 nM ); D3 receptor ( Ki = 12.2 nM ); D4 receptor ( Ki = 59.7 nM ); D1 receptor ( Ki = 1659 nM ); D5 receptor ( Ki = 1691 nM )
ln Vitro
Bromocriptine stimulates [35S]-GTPγS binding at the D2 dopamine receptor expressed in CHO cells with pEC50 of 8.15±0.05[1]. Bromocriptine also is a strong inhibitor of brain nitric oxide synthase. Bromocriptine (BKT), an ergot alkaloid, is found to be weakly active against inducible macrophage NOS (IC50>100 μM), but it acts as a strong inhibitor of purified neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS) (IC50=10±2 μM) [2]. It has been discovered that at least one human cytochrome P450 enzyme is inhibited by bromocriptine. With an estimated IC50 value for the interaction of 1.69 μM, bromocriptine is a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4[3].
ln Vivo
Bromocriptine mesylate (2 mg/kg, i.p.) is given for 7 days in groups of mice participating in the forced swimming test (FST) and tail suspension test (TST). Bromocriptine group exhibits a discernible anti-immobility effect in comparison to the control. The anti-immobility effect of MPE (200 mg/kg, p.o.) is significantly and dose-dependently potentiated when bromocriptine is given 30 minutes after the final dose of the seven-day MPE treatment and the subjects are exposed to FST, in contrast to MPE treatment alone. When compared to the control group, the group receiving bromocriptine treatment exhibits a notable decrease in immobility time. When bromocriptine (100 and 200 mg/kg, p.o.) is administered seven days after MPE pretreatment, the anti-immobility effect of MPE is significantly and dose-dependently enhanced, as compared to MPE treatment alone[4]. When bromocriptine is administered intraceremoniously, the static mechanical allodynia (SMA) score is significantly lower than in sham (saline-injected rats) and the effect lasts for 30 minutes. In the CCI-IoN group, intraperitoneal administration of bromocriptine resulted in a significant, dose-dependent (0.1 mg and 1 mg/kg) decrease in pain scores compared to sham, with a 6-hour duration of effect. The biggest reduction in score is induced by the highest dose (P<0.01). For 20 minutes, bromocriptine has an effect. When compared to a sham group, the CCI-IoN+6-OHDA lesioned group's SMA score significantly decreases upon intraperitoneal administration of bromocriptine. Its impact lasts for half an hour[5].
Enzyme Assay
The assay for [35S]-GTPγS binding is performed. For 30 minutes at 30°C, cell membranes (25 ±75 ug) are incubated in Buffer B, which contains 0.1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), 1 uM GDP, and medications in a volume of 0.9 mL. This preincubation guarantees that the tested agonists are in an equilibrium state when the final concentration of [35S]-GTPγS (50±150 pM) is added (in 100 uL of Buffer B) to start the reaction. Unless otherwise specified, the assay mixture is incubated for a further 20 minutes. Rapid filtration ends the assays, and bound radioactivity is measured as previously mentioned for the radio-ligand binding assays. Less than 20% of the added GTPγS is bound in total by [35S]-GTPγS[1].
Animal Protocol
Mice: There are 150 total Swiss mice (20–25 g) of either sex used. One such agonist for the dopamine receptor (D2) is bromocriptine mesylate. Distilled water is used to dilute the medication haloperidol, which is then injected. A single drop of glacial acetic acid is used to dissolve bromocriptine mesylate, which is then diluted with distilled water to the desired volume. Imipramine dissolves in 0.9% regular saline. In groups of mice undergoing the Forced Swimming Test (FST) and Tail Suspension Test (TST), haloperidol (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) and bromocriptine mesylate (2 mg/kg, i.p.) are given for 7 days. As a standard, positive control groups receive imipramine (10 mg/kg, p.o.) for seven days.
Rats: The rats used are adult male Sprague-Dawleys (N=112, 275–325 g). A couple of weeks following the 6-OHDA injection, the animals undergo a brief (less than three minutes) mask-applied 2% halothane anesthesia before receiving either the vehicle (5 μL of 0.9% saline) or bromocriptine (7 μg/kg dissolved in 5 μL vehicle) intraperitoneally. We used concentrations of SKF81297 (3 mg/kg dissolved in 0.9% saline) and bromocriptine (1 mg/kg) for intraperitoneal injection. A blind experimenter places the rats in the observation field for a 40-minute period test after they have recovered for less than two minutes.
