Triflusal (formerly UR1501; Disgren, Grendis, Aflen, Triflux), a platelet aggregation inhibitor and a salicylate analog, acts by irreversibly inhibiting the production of thromboxane-B2 in platelets via acetylating the enzyme COX-1/cycloxygenase-1. The main metabolite of Triflusal is HTB, which preserves 6-keto-PGF1α synthesis in porcine aortic endothelial cells (PAEC) cells without a significant decline for up to 24 h even at the higher concentration. Triflusal at 10 mM, 100 mM and 1 M decreases LDH efflux in rat brain slices after anoxia/reoxygenation by 24%, 35% and 49% respectively. Triflusal also reduces inducible NO synthase activity by 18%, 21% and 30%.

ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Absorbed in the small intestine with a bioavailability range from 83% to 100%. There is no significant difference between the absorption of the oral solution and capsule formulation. Triflusal displays a Cmax of 11.6 mcg/ml and a tmax of 0.88 h. The major metabolite of triflusal presents different pharmacokinetic properties by showing a Cmax and tmax of 92.7 mcg/ml and 4.96 h, respectively. The elimination pathway of triflusal is primarily renal. Urine analysis has shown the presence of unchanged triflusal, HTB and the glycine conjugate of HTB. The reported volume of distribution for triflusal is of 34L. Renal clearance is 0.8 +/- 0.2L/h and 0.18 +/1 0.04L/h for triflusal and HTB, respectively. Metabolism / Metabolites In the liver, triflusal undergoes deacetylation, forming its main metabolite 2-OH-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid (HTB). This major metabolite seems to have marked antiplatelet properties in vitro. Biological Half-Life In the healthy human, the half-life is 0.5 +/- 0.1h, while that of HTB is 34.3 +/- 5.3h. |

Additional Infomation |
2-acetyloxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid is a member of salicylates, a carboxylic ester and a member of benzoic acids.
Triflusal is a 2-acetoxy-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid and it is an aspirin chemically-related molecule but not a derivative. The benefits of this agent are the lack of action over the arachidonic acid pathway, the driven production of nitric oxide and the increase of cyclic nucleotide concentration on endothelial cells. The latest translates into the expansion of peripheral blood vessels. It is very important as a secondary prevention of ischemic stroke by offering a lower risk of bleeding. It was developed by J. Uriach and Company and even though it is commercialized in different countries it is not approved by the FDA, EMA or HealthCanada. Drug Indication Triflusal is indicated as prophylaxis of thromboembolic disorders. It has been registered in Spain and in other countries of Europe, South America and South Korea for the prevention of Stroke and myocardial infarction. Mechanism of Action Triflusal is chemically related to acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and irreversibly inhibits cycloxygenase-1 (COX-1) in platelets. Acetylation of the active group of COX-1 prevents the formation of thromboxane-B2 in platelets. However, it is unique because it spares the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway in endothelial cells. In addition, it favors the production of nitric oxide, a vasodilator. Pharmacodynamics Triflusal is an antithrombotic anticoagulant. It irreversibly inhibits the production of thromboxane-B2 in platelets by acetylating cycloxygenase-1. Triflusal affects many other targets such as NF kappa B, which is a gene expression regulatory factor for cycloxygenase-a and cytokines. Numerous studies comparing the efficacy and safety profile (i.e. systemic hemorrhage) between triflusal and acetylsalsylic acid has shown either no significant difference or a better effacy and safety profile for triflusal. Triflusal has been shown to protect cerebral tissue due to its inhibition of lipid peroxidation resulting from anoxia-reoxygenation. |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 3 mg/mL (12.09 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 30.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 3 mg/mL (12.09 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 30.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
