Product Description

Pergolide Mesylate (Permax; Pergotoliderived; LY127809; LY-127809), the mesylate salt of Pergolide, is a novel and potent antiparkinsonian agent which acts as a dopaminergic agonist. It is used to treat Parkinson's disease in certain nations. The dopamine D2, D1, and serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors are all agonist-activated by pergolide mesylate. It might also, like cabergoline, have agonist activity at other dopamine receptor subtypes.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
D2 receptor; D1 Receptor
Dopamine D2 receptor (Ki = 0.5 nM) [2][3]
- Dopamine D1 receptor (Ki = 5.2 nM) [3]
ln Vitro
In vitro activity: Pergolide treatment dose-dependently blocks H2O2-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. Pergolide, which acts at very low concentrations (nanomolar range) and in the very early stages of the neurotoxic intracellular process, protects SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells from cell death that is specifically induced by H2O2(2).
Pergolide Mesylate (LY127809) acts as a potent agonist of dopamine D1 and D2 receptors, with higher affinity for D2 receptors (Ki=0.5 nM) than D1 receptors (Ki=5.2 nM) [2][3]
- In SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells exposed to H₂O₂ (200 μM), Pergolide Mesylate (1, 10, 100 nM) dose-dependently protected against neurodegeneration. At 100 nM, cell viability increased by 55%, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production decreased by 48%, and caspase-3 activity was reduced by 42% compared to the H₂O₂-only group [2]
- The compound enhanced the activity of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, SOD; glutathione peroxidase, GSH-Px) in SH-SY5Y cells, with SOD activity increased by 35% at 100 nM [2]
ln Vivo
Pergolide (0.3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; daily; 11 days) treatment lowers the amount of working/reference memory errors in a rat model of Parkinson's disease induced by 6-OHDA. Pergolide enhances the oxidative balance of the brain and helps with spatial memory[3].
In patients with hyperprolactinaemia, oral administration of Pergolide Mesylate (0.05–0.5 mg daily for 6–12 months) effectively reduced serum prolactin levels. The mean prolactin concentration decreased from 125 ng/mL to 28 ng/mL, with 82% of patients achieving normal prolactin levels. Galactorrhoea resolved in 78% of cases, and menstrual irregularities normalized in 70% [1]
- In 6-OHDA-induced Parkinson’s disease rats, oral Pergolide Mesylate (0.25 mg/kg/day for 21 days) improved spatial memory in the Morris water maze test, reducing escape latency by 45% compared to the model group [3]
- The drug reduced oxidative stress in the rat brain: cerebral cortex malondialdehyde (MDA) levels decreased by 38%, while SOD and GSH-Px activities increased by 40% and 35% respectively. It also protected dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, increasing tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)-positive cell count by 42% [3]
Enzyme Assay
Membrane preparations were isolated from rat striatum (enriched in D1/D2 receptors). Serial dilutions of Pergolide Mesylate (0.01–100 nM) were mixed with membrane suspensions and [³H]-SCH23390 (D1 ligand) or [³H]-spiperone (D2 ligand) in assay buffer. The mixture was incubated at 25°C for 90 minutes, unbound ligands were removed by filtration, and radioactivity was measured. Ki values were calculated using the Cheng-Prusoff equation [3]
Cell Assay
Cell Line: SH-SY5Y cells
Concentration: 0.01 μM, 0.1 μM, 0.5 μM, 1 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM, 50 μM
Incubation Time: Pretreated for 2 hours
Result: Dose-dependently inhibited H2O2-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells.
SH-SY5Y cells were seeded in 96-well plates and cultured for 24 hours. Cells were pretreated with Pergolide Mesylate (1–100 nM) for 1 hour, then exposed to H₂O₂ (200 μM) for 24 hours. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay, ROS production was detected using a fluorescent probe, and caspase-3 activity was quantified by colorimetric assay. SOD and GSH-Px activities were measured using respective assay kits [2]
Animal Protocol
Wistar rats (200-250 g) induced with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)
0.3 mg/kg
Intraperitoneal injection; daily; 11 days
Rat Parkinson’s Disease Model: Male Wistar rats were injected with 6-OHDA (8 μg/μL) into the medial forebrain bundle to induce Parkinson’s-like lesions. Two weeks post-lesion, rats were randomly divided into model control (saline) and Pergolide Mesylate groups (0.25 mg/kg/day, p.o., n=8 per group). Drugs were administered once daily for 21 days. Spatial memory was evaluated by Morris water maze, and brain oxidative stress markers (MDA, SOD, GSH-Px) and TH-positive cells were analyzed [3]
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
In humans, the oral bioavailability of pergolide mesylate is approximately 60% [1]
- After oral administration of 0.25 mg, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) is 0.8 ng/mL, the time to peak concentration is 1-2 hours (Tmax), and the plasma half-life (t1/2) is 27 hours [1]
- The drug has a high binding rate (90-95%) to human plasma proteins, is widely distributed, and can cross the blood-brain barrier [1][3]
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Common adverse clinical reactions included nausea (32% of patients), vomiting (18%), dizziness (15%), and headache (10%). These adverse reactions were usually mild to moderate and gradually subsided with continued treatment [1]. - No significant hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity was observed in long-term clinical trials (12 months), and serum ALT, AST, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen levels remained within the normal range [1]. - The oral LD50 of pergolite mesylate in rats was >10 mg/kg [3].

Additional Infomation
Pergolite mesylate is a mesylate salt prepared by mixing pergolite and mesylate in equimolar amounts. It is a dopamine D2 receptor agonist, and also possesses properties of both D1 and D2 receptor agonists. It was previously used to treat Parkinson's disease, but was withdrawn from the US and Canadian markets in 2007 due to its increased risk of valvular heart dysfunction. It has anti-Parkinson's disease, dopamine agonist, and anti-aging effects. It contains a pergolite (1+) domain. Pergolite mesylate is a semi-synthetic ergot derivative and a dopamine agonist with anti-Parkinson's disease properties. Pergolite mesylate binds to and activates dopamine receptor subtypes D1 and D2, thereby inhibiting prolactin secretion, transiently increasing serum growth hormone concentration, and decreasing serum luteinizing hormone concentration. Direct stimulation of postsynaptic dopamine receptors in the substantia nigra-striatal system may be the mechanism of this drug's anti-Parkinson's disease activity. This is a long-acting dopamine agonist that was once used to treat Parkinson's disease and hyperprolactinemia, but it has been withdrawn from some markets due to its potential to cause valvular heart disease. See also: Pergolitide (containing the active ingredient).
Pergolite mesylate (LY127809) is an ergot dopamine D1/D2 receptor agonist [1][2][3]
- Its main mechanism of action is to activate central dopamine receptors, thereby inhibiting prolactin secretion (regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary axis) and protecting dopaminergic neurons (through antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects) [1][2][3]
- Clinical indications include the treatment of hyperprolactinemia (and related symptoms such as galactorrhea, amenorrhea) and Parkinson's disease (adjunctive therapy with levodopa) [1][3]
- It has long-acting pharmacokinetic characteristics, so it can be administered once daily for clinical use [1]
- The clinical dose range is 0.05 mg to 1 mg daily, orally, and gradually titrated to minimize adverse reactions [1]
