Description

Lomerizine dihydrochloride is an antagonist of L- and T-type voltagegated calcium channels.

IC50 & Target[1]

T-type calcium channel

 

L-type calcium channel

 

In Vitro

Lomerizine is an antagonist of L- and T-type voltagegated calcium channels and transient receptor potential channel 5 transient receptor potential channels. Lomerizine is a dual L/T-type channel blocker used for prophylaxis of migraine. To demonstrate the effectiveness of Lomerizine in limiting intracellular [Ca2+], its ability to inhibit glutamate-induced death of motor neurons and the associated rise in cytosolic [Ca2+] is evaluated. Lomerizine inhibits the low- and high-voltage activated Ca2+ currents in dissociated rat brain neurons at a threshold concentration of 0.01 μM and IC50 of 1.9 μM and H2O2-induced Ca2+ influx in hippocampal neurons is inhibited by 1 μM Lomerizine. Pre-treatment with 1 μM Lomerizine significantly reduces acute death of motor neurons in spinal cord-DRG cultures exposed to 50 μM glutamate, a concentration that kills approximately 40% of motor neurons in the culture by 6 h, and inhibits the rise in cytosolic [Ca2+] that occurs with glutamate treatment. 0.5 μM Lomerizine is sufficient to significantly prevent the mitochondrial fragmentation of mitochondria induced by SOD1G93A[1]. Lomerizine increases the cytotoxicity of Adriamycin (ADM) and the apoptosis induced by ADM or Vincristine (VCR) in K562/ADM cells. At the concentration of 3, 10 and 30μM, Lomerizine reduces the IC50 value of ADM from 79.03 μM to 28.14, 8.16 and 3.16 μM, respectively. Lomerizine increases the intracellular accumulation of ADM and inhibits the efflux of Rh123 in K562/ ADM cells. No change in P-gp expression is observed after the treatment of Lomerizine for 72 h. Lomerizine has strong reversal effect on MDR in K562/ADM cells by inhibiting P-gp function[2].

In Vivo

To determine whether Ca2+ signaling molecules mediate NMDA-induced neurotoxicity in p50-deficient mice, the neuroprotective effects of chemical reagents are examined, which act on the Ca2+-signaling pathway including CaN activation, on NMDA-induced RGC death. The p50-deficient mice at 2 months of age, showing normal RGC survival, undergo intraperitoneal pretreatments with a NMDA antagonist, MK801 or Memantine; calcium blocker, Lomerizine; and CaN inhibitor, Tacrolimus, daily for 1 week before the injection of 5 nM NMDA. The chronic administration of Lomerizine or Tacrolimus to KO mice for 6 months results in an increase in surviving RGC numbers (p<0.0001)[3]. Lomerizine (KB-2796; 0.3 and 1 mg/kg, i.v.) dose-dependently increases cerebral blood flow significantly at 30 min and 15 min, respectively, after its administration. Lomerizine (1 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly attenuates the expression of c-Fos-like immunoreactivity in the ipsilateral frontoparietal cortex[4].

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.84 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.84 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay
[2]

MTT assay is used to determine the influence of Lomerizine on the cytotoxicity of Adriamycin (ADM). The effect of Lomerizine (3, 10 and 30 μM) on the apoptosis induced by ADM and Vincristine (VCR) in K562/ADM cells is detected using flow cytometry. Intracellular accumulation of ADM is measured by fluorescence spectrophotometry. Flow cytometry is used to investigate the efflux of Rhodamine 123 (Rh123) and the expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in K562/ADM cells[2].

Animal Administration
[3][4]

Mice[3]
The p50-deficient mice and wild-type mice aged 2 months are daily pre-treated intraperitoneally with Memantine (10 mg/kg), MK-801 (0.5 mg/kg), Lomerizine (1 mg/kg), or Tacrolimus (2, 0.5 and 0.2 mg/kg) for one week before the NMDA injection. These mice are given an intravitreous injection of 5 nM NMDA, which is a relatively low concentration for causing neurotoxicity[3].
Rats[4]
Male Wistar rats weighing 250 to 350 g are housed in an air-conditioned room at 25±0°C with 55±5% humidity and given food and water ad libitum. Lomerizine is injected i.v. in a volume of 1 mL/kg body weight. Effects of Lomerizine (0.3 mg/kg, i.v., or 1 mg/kg, i.v.) are measured on cerebral cortical blood flow measured by laser Doppler flowmetry (CBFLDF) in anaesthetized rats[4].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
