Methsuximide
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Methsuximide (Mesuximide) is an orally active succinimide-derived antiepileptic agent. Methsuximide interacts with cytochrome P-450, increases the level of hepatic microsomal cytochrome P-450, and inhibits or competes with the cytochrome P-450 CYP 2C9/10 subtype. Methsuximide can be used in epilepsy-related research.

Biologische Aktivität
Methsuximide (Mesuximide) (1-4 mM) interacts with phenobarbitone-induced male CFHB Wistar rat liver microsomal cytochrome P-450 to produce a type I spectral shift, with maximal absorbance change observed at 3 mM[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Methsuximide (8 mg/egg; chorioallantoic injection; single dose) induces a 50-fold increase in hepatic porphyrin levels, demonstrating marked porphyrogenic activity in 17-day-old chick embryos[1].
Methsuximide (33-250 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) completely suppresses Pentylenetetrazol-induced initial clonic seizures in Sprague-Dawley rats at oral doses of 63 mg/kg and higher, with neurotoxic effects (ataxia, loss of grasping reflex) increasing with dose[2].
Methsuximide (84-100 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) protects 50% of Webster strain mice from supramaximal electroshock-induced tonic extensor seizures at an oral ED50 of 84 mg/kg without causing neurologic deficits, and achieves maximal anti-extensor seizure activity at non-neurotoxic doses[2].
Methsuximide (500-3000 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) has an acute oral LD50 of 1405 mg/kg in albino mice, with high doses causing immediate, transient neurotoxicity and respiratory failure leading to death[2].
Methsuximide (232-1755 mg/kg; p.o.; daily; 4 weeks) is tolerated by male albino mice with only mild food intake and weight gain depression, and no mortality or overt behavioral abnormalities[2].
Methsuximide (10-200 mg/kg; p.o.; twice daily, 5 days/week; 183-367 days) is tolerated by dogs at doses up to 75 mg/kg twice daily (5 days/week) for 6 months with no toxic reactions, while doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg twice daily cause mild incoordination; no organ damage or abnormal clinical findings occur across all tested doses[2].
Methsuximide (50-200 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily, 5 days/week; 147-371 days) is tolerated by Macaca rhesus monkeys at doses up to 100 mg/kg once daily (5 days/week) for up to 1 year with only occasional mild incoordination, while 200 mg/kg causes transient marked ataxia; no mortality, organ damage, or abnormal clinical findings occur across all tested doses[2].
