Biological Activity
Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1].
Flunarizine blocks sodium currents (INa) and calcium currents (ICa) with IC50 values of 0.94 μM and 1.77 μM in cultured rat cortical neurons, respectively[3].
?
Flunarizine (10 and 30 μM; 24 h) shows cytotoxic effects to chromaffin cells[5].
?
Flunarizine (1-30 μM) causes clear cytoprotection of chromaffin cell at concentrations of 3-10 μM[5].
