Almotriptan
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Almotriptan (PNU180638 free base) is an orally active, highly selective agonist of the 5-HT1B/1D receptor (5-HT1B/1D receptor), with EC50 values of 1.6 nM and 3.1 nM, respectively. Almotriptan shows moderate affinity for the 5-HT1F receptor, and weak affinity for the 5-HT1A, 5-HT6 and 5-HT7 receptors. Almotriptan induces intracranial vasoconstriction, inhibits nociceptive neurotransmission in the trigeminocervical complex, and suppresses the release of vasoactive peptides from trigeminal nerve endings. Almotriptan can be used in research related to migraine.

5-HT1D Receptor |
Almotriptan acts as a full agonist to induce potent concentration-dependent contractions in canine isolated saphenous veins, with an EC50 of 394 nM, via 5-HT1B/1D receptors[2].
Almotriptan induces vasoconstriction in human isolated meningeal, superficial temporal, and basilar arteries, with EC50 values of 0.7 μM (superficial temporal) and 3.7 μM (basilar), and greater potency than Sumatriptan (HY-B0121B) in meningeal arteries[2].
Almotriptan is metabolized by multiple human liver microsomal enzymes, including MAO-A, FMO, aldehyde dehydrogenase, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4, and only weakly inhibits CYP2D6 with no significant inhibition of MAO-A or MAO-B[2].

Almotriptan (0-1 mg/kg; intravenous injection; single dose; maximum 0.3 mg/kg; intravenous injection; single dose; 30 μg/min; intracoronary infusion; 1 h) increases carotid vascular resistance in beagle dogs, and exhibits better carotid-femoral artery selectivity than Sumatriptan. At the tested doses, this agent has favorable cardiovascular safety, with no cardiac inhibitory effect or QTc interval change[2].
Almotriptan (10 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; single dose) inhibits trigeminal ganglion-induced meningeal vascular extravasation in anesthetized guinea pigs, and at a subcutaneous dose of 10 mg/kg, it causes no hypothermia or bronchospasm in conscious guinea pigs[2].
Almotriptan (oral administration; single dose) does not alter cardiovascular parameters or diuretic effects in normotensive Wistar rats at the tested oral doses[2].
Almotriptan (1-3 mg/kg; subcutaneous injection; single administration) exerts no cardiovascular effects at the dose of 1 mg/kg s.c. in conscious cynomolgus monkeys, while the 3 mg/kg s.c. dose only induces mild, transient effects without electrocardiogram changes[2].
Almotriptan (up to 300 mg/kg; p.o.; single administration) shows no central nervous system-related behavioral or motor function effects in mice at oral doses up to 300 mg/kg[2].
Almotriptan slightly alleviates apomorphine (HY-12723)-induced vomiting responses in dogs[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.45 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.45 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
