Adrafinil
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Adrafinil (CRL 40028) is an orally active vigilance promoting agent. Adrafinil enhances central noradrenergic transmission, improves spontaneous activity, exploratory behavior, discriminative learning ability and response motivation, but impairs visuospatial working memory. Adrafinil antagonizes Prazosin (HY-B0193)-induced hypoactivity and hypothermia, exerts anticonvulsant effects, and induces sustained enhancement of high-frequency electrocortical activity. Adrafinil can be used for research on decreased alertness and specific cognitive deficits.

Activité biologique
Adrafinil (10-20 mg/kg; p.o.; single daily dose; 8 consecutive days) at 20 mg/kg significantly impairs visuospatial working memory in aged beagle dogs as measured by increased errors on the DNMP task, while 10 mg/kg adrafinil does not produce a significant change in task performance[2].
Adrafinil (16 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) significantly antagonizes prazosin-induced hypomotility in male NMRI mice[3].
Adrafinil (2-8 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) produces a significant, dose-dependent antagonism of prazosin-induced hypothermia in male NMRI mice[3].
Adrafinil (128 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose) significantly reduces handling-induced convulsive seizures in C57BL/6J quaking mice, with mean post-treatment seizures decreasing to 2.2 ± 1.13 from a pre-treatment mean of 10.9 ± 0.72 (p < 0.001), and this protective effect is antagonized by prazosin co-administration[3].
Adrafinil (10-50 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) produces a significant, dose- and time-dependent increase in open field locomotion in aged Beagle dogs, with no induction of stereotypical behavior[4].
Adrafinil (10-40 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 14 consecutive days) produces a dose-dependent increase in locomotor activity in aged Beagle dogs with repeated daily administration for 14 days, and response variability correlates with differences in adrafinil metabolism[4].
Adrafinil (20 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose prior to testing) at 20 mg/kg significantly improves discrimination learning and performance motivation in aged Beagle dogs relative to placebo[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
