| Targets |
Calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). Calindol hydrochloride is a potent and selective allosteric modulator of the CaSR. It functions as a positive allosteric modulator (PAM), meaning it binds to a site distinct from the orthosteric (calcium) binding site and enhances the receptor's activity. It has been shown to activate a CaSR mutant that lacks the extracellular ligand-binding domain, confirming its allosteric mode of action.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In cells expressing rat or human CaSR, respectively, calindol stimulates phosphatidylinositol (PI) with an EC50 of 1.0 μM or 0.31 μM in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+ [2]. Calindol (1-10 µM) inhibits whole-cell voltage-gated Ca2+ channel (VGCC) currents in rabbit mesenteric arteries and precontract tone induced by KCl and methoxamine in line myography studies [3].
Calindol hydrochloride is a potent CaSR PAM with an EC50 of 132 nM. It stimulates phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis in cells expressing the rat or human CaSR, with EC50 values of 1.0 μM and 0.31 μM, respectively, in the presence of 2 mM Ca2+. It also inhibits Pi-induced vascular calcification (VC), delaying its progression in vascular smooth muscle cells. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Calindol hydrochloride is used to study the effects of CaSR modulation. By acting as a PAM, it can potentiate the effects of extracellular calcium, leading to downstream effects such as the inhibition of Pi-induced vascular calcification. This makes it a useful compound for researching disorders like vascular calcification, which is a common complication in chronic kidney disease and other cardiovascular conditions.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding studies for allosteric modulators like Calindol hydrochloride typically involve radioligand binding assays using membranes from cells expressing the CaSR. These assays can determine if the compound binds to an allosteric site by examining its effect on the binding of a known orthosteric ligand. Functional assays, such as measuring Ca2+-evoked intracellular calcium mobilization or PI hydrolysis in CaSR-expressing cells, are used to confirm its PAM activity and determine its EC50.
|
| Cell Assay |
The in vitro cellular activity of Calindol hydrochloride is evaluated using cell lines that endogenously or heterologously express the CaSR. Cells are treated with the compound in the presence of varying concentrations of extracellular Ca2+. The potentiation of CaSR-mediated signaling, such as an increase in intracellular calcium or PI hydrolysis, is then measured. This allows for the determination of its EC50 for PAM activity, which has been reported as 132 nM.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with Calindol hydrochloride would typically be performed in animal models of vascular calcification or other CaSR-related diseases. The compound would be administered, and its effects on disease progression, such as the inhibition of vascular calcification, would be assessed. Its impact on systemic calcium homeostasis and other downstream effects of CaSR activation would also be monitored to understand its pharmacodynamic profile.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a small molecule (molecular weight: 336.86, formula: C21H21ClN2), Calindol hydrochloride is soluble in DMSO. Its pharmacokinetic properties, such as absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME), would be characteristic of a typical small-molecule allosteric modulator. While specific PK data is limited, its use in research suggests it has sufficient bioavailability for in vivo studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data is available for Calindol hydrochloride. As a CaSR PAM, its safety profile would be of interest. Potential toxicities could be related to over-activation of the CaSR, which could lead to hypocalcemia or other disturbances in mineral ion homeostasis. Standard preclinical safety studies would be required to evaluate its potential for adverse effects before any clinical application.
