Nicergoline tartrate is a naturally occuring ergot derivative and a vasoactive drug with α-adrenergic blocking activity, producing vasodilatation. It is employed in the treatment of vascular-originated disorders, including senile dementia. It improves the way brain cells use oxygen and glucose by lowering vascular resistance and increasing arterial blood flow. Its vasoactive characteristics are comparable in other bodily parts, especially the lungs. In contrast to numerous other ergolines, like ergotamine, nicergoline does not cause fibrosis.

Nicergoline (0.3-30 μM; 24 h) reduces the amount of neuronal cell death caused by astrocytes and activated microglia[3].
Nicergoline (0.3-30 μM; 48 h) inhibits activated microglia's generation of proinflammatory cytokines and superoxide anion[3]. |
| ln Vivo |
Nicergoline (10 mg/kg; i.v. once daily for 60 d) improves impaired neurogenesis and cognitive function in mice with Alzheimer's disease[2].
Nicergoline (10 mg/kg; intravenously once daily for 60 days) inhibits oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in hippocampus cells and controls hippocampus cell activity via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in mice[2]. |

| Additional Infomation |
Nicergoline is an organic nitrogen heterocyclic compound and an organic heterotetracyclic compound. It is an ergot derivative and has been used as a cerebral vasodilator and to treat peripheral vascular disease. Studies have shown that it can improve cognitive impairment in patients with cerebrovascular disease. It is an ergot derivative and has been used as a cerebral vasodilator and to treat peripheral vascular disease. It may improve cognitive impairment in patients with cerebrovascular disease. Indications: Used to treat Alzheimer's disease, vascular migraine, transient ischemic attack, increased platelet aggregation, and macular degeneration. Mechanism of Action: Nicergoline acts by inhibiting postsynaptic α1-adrenergic receptors on vascular smooth muscle. This inhibits the vasoconstrictive effects of circulating and locally released catecholamines (adrenaline and noradrenaline), leading to peripheral vasodilation. Therefore, the mechanism of action of nicergoline is to increase cerebral circulation, thereby enhancing the transmission of nerve signals along nerve fibers that secrete acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter).
Pharmacodynamics Nicergoline is a potent vasodilator (improves cerebral blood flow). In the brain, it reduces vascular resistance, increases arterial blood flow, and stimulates the utilization of oxygen and glucose. Nicergoline also improves blood circulation in the lungs and limbs and has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.16 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.16 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*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.
