1. Phensuximide

Phensuximide is an orally active succinimide antiepileptic and anticonvulsant agent. Phensuximide inhibits cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP accumulation in depolarized brain tissue. Phensuximide can be used for the study of seizure and petit mal.

Description

Phensuximide is an orally active succinimide antiepileptic and anticonvulsant agent. Phensuximide inhibits cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP accumulation in depolarized brain tissue. Phensuximide can be used for the study of seizure and petit mal[1][3].

IC50 & Target

IC50: cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP accumulation[2]

In Vitro

Phensuximide produce depolarization-induced accumulation of cyclic GMP or cyclic AMP levels with ID50 values of 8.00 mM or 6.20 mM in incubated slices of mouse cerebral cortex[2].
Phensuximide (0.5-2.0 mM) has the ability to competitively inhibit mephenytoin 4-hydroxylase activity in human liver microsomes, the Ki and Km values are 559 μM and 235 μM, respectively[4].

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

In Vivo

Phensuximide (intraperitoneal injection; 1.25 mmol/kg; single dose) induces mild changes in renal function, including: trace hematuria, increased proteinuria and decreased paminohippurate uptake in Sprague-Dawley rats[1].
Phensuximide (intraperitoneal injection; 0.3 or 0.6 mmol/kg; 5-7 days) results in transient hematuria and proteinuria, but no change in the other renal function parameters studied. It is concluded that phensuximide produces mild, transient renal effects in Fischer 344 rats, and that the Fischer 344 rat is a suitable model for studying phensuximide-induced toxicity to the urinary tract[1].

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.
