ln Vitro |
(1S,2S)-1-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-hydroxy-4-phenylpiperidino)-1-propanol (20, CP-101,606) has been identified as a potent and selective N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist through a structure activity relation (SAR) program based on ifenprodil, a known antihypertensive agent with NMDA antagonist activity. Sites on the threo-ifenprodil skeleton explored in this report include the pendent methyl group (H, methyl, and ethyl nearly equipotent; propyl much weaker), the spacer group connecting the C-4 phenyl group to the piperidine ring (an alternating potency pattern with 0 and 2 carbon atoms yielding the greatest potency), and simple phenyl substitution (little effect). While potent NMDA antagonists were obtained with a two atom spacer, this arrangement also increased alpha 1 adrenergic affinity. Introduction of a hydroxyl group into the C-4 position on these piperidine ring resulted in substantial reduction in alpha 1 adrenergic affinity. The combination of these observations was instrumental in the discovery of 20. This compound potently protects cultured hippocampal neurons from glutamate toxicity (IC50 = 10 nM) while possessing little of the undesired alpha 1 adrenergic affinity (IC50 approximately 20 microM) of ifenprodil. Furthermore, 20 appears to lack the psychomotor stimulant effects of nonselective competitive and channel-blocking NMDA antagonists. Thus, 20 shows great promise as a neuroprotective agent and may lack the side effects of compounds currently in clinical trials[1].

ln Vivo |
Effectively blocking the NMDA (ip)-stimulated induction of anesthetic cfos is Traxoprodil at 1 mg/kg [1]. At dosages of 20 and 40 mg/kg, tranprodil demonstrated antidepressant efficacy in the forced swim test and was linked to alterations in animal locomotion [2]. PTZ (70 mg/kg; i.p.) increases systemic tonic tetanes when tranprodil (20 nM icv) is administered. The total predicted benefit time is shortened and the possible period of tetanic recovery and fullness is prolonged when tracoprodil (60 mg/kg, coal) is used[3].
Traxoprodil (20 nM icv) increases systemic tonic tetanes induced by PTZ (70 mg/kg; i.p.); Traxoprodil (60 mg/kg, coal) prolongs the potential period of tetanic recovery and fullness and reduces the total expected benefit time[3]. Traxoprodil demonstrated antidepressant activity in the forced swim test at doses of 20 and 40 mg/kg and was associated with changes in animal locomotion [2]. Polyamines, including spermidine, facilitate seizures by positively modulating N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDAr). Although NMDAr antagonists decrease seizures, it remains to be determined whether traxoprodil, a selective antagonist at the NR2B subunit of the NMDAr, decreases seizures and whether spermidine facilitates pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced seizures. Adult male Wistar rats were injected in the lateral ventricle with 0.9% NaCl (1μl, i.c.v.), spermidine (0.02, 0.2 or 2nmol/site, i.c.v.) or traxoprodil (0.2, 2 or 20nmol, i.c.v.) and with PTZ (35 or 70mg/kg, i.p.). The effect of orally administered traxoprodil (60mg/kg, p.o.) on seizures was also investigated. Latencies to clonic and generalized seizures, as well the total time spent in seizures were recorded by behavioral and electrographic methods (EEG). Spermidine (2nmol/site; i.c.v.) facilitated the seizures induced by a sub-threshold dose of PTZ (35mg/kg; i.p.), but did not alter seizure activity induced by a convulsant dose of PTZ (70mg/kg; i.p.). Traxoprodil (20nmol i.c.v.) increased the latency to generalized tonic-clonic seizures induced by PTZ (70mg/kg; i.p.). Traxoprodil (60mg/kg, p.o.) increased the latency to clonic and generalized seizures, and decreased the total time spent in seizures. These results support the role for the NR2B subunit in PTZ-induced seizures.[3] |
Animal Protocol |
Traxoprodil (5, 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) was suspended in a 1 % aqueous solution of Tween 80 (POCH), whereas imipramine hydrochloride (15 and 30 mg/kg), fluoxetine hydrochloride (5 mg/kg), escitalopram oxalate (2 mg/kg), reboxetine mesylate (2.5 mg/kg), WAY 100,635 (0.1 mg/kg), and ritanserin (4 mg/kgh) were dissolved in physiological saline (0.9 % NaCl). The solutions/suspension were prepared immediately prior to the experiments and were administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) 60 min before testing. The doses and pretreatment schedules were selected on the basis of the literature data and the results of our previous experiments (Poleszak et al. 2005, 2007a, 2011, 2013; Szewczyk et al. 2002, 2009). Animals from the control groups received i.p. injections of the vehicle (saline). The volume of all administered solutions/suspension was 10 ml/kg.[2]

Additional Infomation |
One of the newest substances, whose antidepressant activity was shown is traxoprodil, which is a selective antagonist of the NR2B subunit of the NMDA receptor. The main goal of the present study was to evaluate the effect of traxoprodil on animals' behavior using the forced swim test (FST), as well as the effect of traxoprodil (10 mg/kg) on the activity of antidepressants, such as imipramine (15 mg/kg), fluoxetine (5 mg/kg), escitalopram (2 mg/kg) and reboxetine (2.5 mg/kg). Serotonergic lesion and experiment using the selective agonists of serotonin receptors 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 was conducted to evaluate the role of the serotonergic system in the antidepressant action of traxoprodil. Brain concentrations of tested agents were determined using HPLC. The results showed that traxoprodil at a dose of 20 and 40 mg/kg exhibited antidepressant activity in the FST and it was not related to changes in animals' locomotor activity. Co-administration of traxoprodil with imipramine, fluoxetine or escitalopram, each in subtherapeutic doses, significantly affected the animals' behavior in the FST and, what is important, these changes were not due to the severity of locomotor activity. The observed effect of traxoprodil is only partially associated with serotonergic system and is independent of the effect on the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 serotonin receptors. The results of an attempt to assess the nature of the interaction between traxoprodil and the tested drugs show that in the case of joint administration of traxoprodil and fluoxetine, imipramine or escitalopram, there were interactions in the pharmacokinetic phase.[2]
