Description

Mefexamide (ANP-297) is a psychostimulant psychopharmaceutical and aryloxyacetic acid derivative antidepressant with dopaminergic activity. Mefexamide can be used for the research of depression[1][2].

In Vitro

Mefexamide (1 g; 15 min refluxed) undergoes acid hydrolysis to yield four breakdown products, and the compound exhibits distinct spectroscopic and chromatographic profiles, including a melting point of 112 °C, UV absorption maximum at 285 nm, and characteristic EI/CI mass spectra[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Mefexamide (i.v. perfusion) demonstrates sympathomimetic activity by reversing Reserpine (HY-N0480)-induced ptosis in male Fauve de Bourgogne rabbits[2].
Mefexamide reverses Tetrabenazine (HY-B0590)-induced ptosis in male Wistar rats[2].
Mefexamide (5-20 mg/kg; i.v.; singer dose) significantly potentiates LSD-25-induced hyperthermia in male rabbits[2].
Mefexamide (5-20 mg/kg; i.v.; singer dose) potentiates Noradrenaline (HY-13715)-induced hyperthermia in male rabbits, with less significant effects than seen with LSD-25[2].
Mefexamide (10 mg/kg; i.v.; singer dose) protects against Reserpine (HY-N0480)-induced lowering of the bemegride convulsion threshold in male rabbits[2].
Mefexamide (10 mg/kg; i.v.; singer dose) does not significantly alter the EEG of normal male rabbits[2].

Animal Model: Rabbit (male)[2]
Dosage: 5.0 mg/kg; 20.0 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; singer dose
Result: Significantly potentiated LSD-25-induced hyperthermia in rabbits, mirroring the activity of cocaine.
Animal Model: Rabbit (male)[2]
Dosage: 5.0 mg/kg; 20.0 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; singer dose
Result: Potentiated noradrenaline-induced hyperthermia in rabbits, with a similar activity profile to that observed with LSD-25, though effects were less significant.
Animal Model: Rabbit (male)[2]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; singer dose
Result: Reversed the reserpine-induced reduction in bemegride convulsion threshold, demonstrating antagonist activity similar to cocaine.
Animal Model: Rabbit (male)[2]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; singer dose
Result: Did not significantly modify the EEG of normal male Giant of Flanders rabbits, with no notable induction of large slow waves.

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.
