| Targets |
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) functions as a glutamate transporter enhancer, specifically modulating excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2) to promote glutamate uptake, thereby reducing extracellular glutamate levels and mitigating excitotoxicity. This mechanism targets the glutamatergic system to restore neurotransmitter balance.[1]

| ln Vitro |
In Vitro: [1]
In primary rat cortical neuron cultures, Troriluzole (BHV-4157) demonstrated significant neuroprotective effects against glutamate-induced cytotoxicity, as evidenced by improved cell viability in MTT assays. Exposure to glutamate (100 μM) for 24 hours resulted in ~50% cell death, which was reduced to ~80% viability with Troriluzole (BHV-4157) treatment at 10 μM. Western blot analysis confirmed upregulation of EAAT2 protein expression in neuronal cells after 48-hour incubation with Troriluzole (BHV-4157) at 5-20 μM, indicating enhanced glutamate transporter activity. |
| ln Vivo |
In Vivo: [1]
In a rat model of anxiety (elevated plus maze test), oral administration of Troriluzole (BHV-4157) at 10-30 mg/kg once daily for 7 days significantly reduced anxiety-like behaviors, with a 40% increase in open-arm time compared to controls, demonstrating efficacy in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) models. In transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's disease (e.g., APP/PS1 mice), Troriluzole (BHV-4157) administered orally at 20 mg/kg daily for 8 weeks improved cognitive function in Morris water maze tests, reducing escape latency by 30% and enhancing memory retention.[2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal Protocol: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was dissolved in a vehicle solution (e.g., saline with 0.5% methylcellulose) and administered orally via gavage at doses of 10, 20, or 30 mg/kg once daily for 7 consecutive days in rat anxiety models. Behavioral assessments were conducted 1 hour post-dose. For Alzheimer's disease studies, Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was formulated in a similar vehicle and given orally to mice at doses of 5, 10, or 20 mg/kg once daily for 8 weeks. Cognitive testing was performed weekly, with tissue collection for analysis post-treatment.[2] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
ADME/Pharmacokinetics: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) showed good oral bioavailability in rats, approximately 60%, reaching peak plasma concentration (Cmax) within 2 hours after administration, with a half-life of approximately 4 hours. It is rapidly metabolized to the active metabolite riluzole, which exhibits linear pharmacokinetics and is widely distributed in the brain, with a brain-plasma ratio of 0.5–0.8. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics: [1]
In repeated-dose toxicity studies,Troriluzole (BHV-4157) was well tolerated in rats at doses up to 100 mg/kg/day for 28 days, and no adverse effects on hepatic or renal function were observed in serum biochemical parameters. Plasma protein binding was moderate (approximately 70%), and no significant drug interactions were found in the cytochrome P450 inhibition assay. |

| Additional Infomation |
Additional information: [1]
Troriluzole (BHV-4157) is a prodrug of riluzole designed to enhance delivery to the central nervous system, with a unique mechanism targeting glutamate dysregulation in anxiety disorders. A phase II clinical trial for generalized anxiety disorder showed significant symptom relief compared to placebo. Due to its neuroprotective properties, Troliluuzole is being investigated in the field of Alzheimer's disease, with ongoing clinical trials focusing on cognitive improvement and safety in older patients. No warnings have been issued by the FDA, and Troliluuzole has the potential to become a disease-modifying therapy. [2] |
