10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine exhibits antagonist activity at both the human 5HT3A and P2X4 receptors. It inhibits serotonin-induced inward Na+ current in HEK293 cells and ATP-induced cytosolic calcium influx in human 1321N1 cells. It also shows weak inhibitory effects on recombinant human SIRT2 and SIRT1.

| ln Vitro |
10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine, the active metabolite of oxycarbazepine, is produced in the liver through its metabolism. An antiepileptic medication (AED) called oxycarbazepine is used either as a monotherapy or as an adjuvant treatment to treat partial seizures[1]. When determining the amount of 10,11-dihydrocarbamazepine in pharmaceutical formulations using liquid chromatography (LC), 10,11-dihydrocarbamazepine can be utilized as a reference standard[1].
10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine inhibits serotonin-induced inward Na+ current in HEK293 cells at concentrations of 10 µM or higher, with inhibition not exceeding 50%. For the P2X4 receptor, it achieves 35% inhibition at 100 µM after a 30-minute preincubation, with an IC50 greater than 100,000 nM. It shows less than 25% inhibition of SIRT2 and SIRT1 at 50 µM. |
| ln Vivo |
10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine is the active metabolite of oxcarbazepine and is responsible for its anticonvulsant effects in vivo. It modulates neuronal firing and neurotransmitter release to control seizures. As an active metabolite, it contributes to the therapeutic efficacy of oxcarbazepine in treating partial seizures.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays are performed by incubating 10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine with HEK293 cells expressing human 5HT3A receptors or 1321N1 cells expressing P2X4 receptors. For 5HT3A, serotonin-induced inward Na+ current is measured using patch-clamp electrophysiology. For P2X4, ATP-induced cytosolic calcium influx is measured using a Fluo-4 AM dye-based fluorescence assay. SIRT1/2 inhibition is assessed using a homogeneous fluorescent deacetylase assay with ZMAL as substrate.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell assays, HEK293 cells or 1321N1 cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with 10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine at concentrations ranging from 1-100 µM. Receptor-mediated ion flux or calcium signaling is measured using fluorescence-based or electrophysiological techniques. Cell viability is assessed to determine compound cytotoxicity. The compound's effects on receptor antagonism are quantified by measuring inhibition of agonist-induced responses.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, 10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine is typically administered to rodents via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection. As the active metabolite of oxcarbazepine, its anticonvulsant efficacy is evaluated in seizure models. Blood and brain tissue samples are collected to measure drug concentrations by LC-MS/MS. The compound's pharmacokinetic profile and tissue distribution are assessed to understand its role in oxcarbazepine's therapeutic effects.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine (MW 238.28) is soluble in DMSO (55 mg/mL). It is stable as a powder at -20°C for 3 years and in solvent at -80°C for 1 year. In vivo formulations may use 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween 80 + 45% saline. As a metabolite of oxcarbazepine, it is produced via hepatic reduction and circulates systemically to exert anticonvulsant effects.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
10,11-Dihydrocarbamazepine is for research use only. No specific toxicity data are available for this compound. As the active metabolite of the approved antiepileptic drug oxcarbazepine, its safety profile is expected to be consistent with that of the parent drug at therapeutic concentrations. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound.

*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.
