Description

Picamilon is an orally active derivative of γ-aminobutyric acid that has nootropic effect. Picamilon improves the epilepsy model in rats and promotes correction of functional disorders of the pancreas during Alloxan (HY-W017227)-induced diabetes mellitus in rats[1][2][3].

In Vivo

Picamilon (PM) (20 or 50 mg/kg; i.p.) significantly decreases the frequency and duration of seizure spike-wave discharges (SWDs) in Picrotoxin (HY-101391)-induced convulsive activity in rats[2].
Picamilon (250 mg/kg; p.o.) inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome activation in pancreatic cells during Alloxan (HY-W017227) -induced diabetes mellitus rats model[3].

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

Animal Model: Picrotoxin (HY-101391)-induced epilepsy model in rats [2]
Dosage: 20 or 50 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.)
Result: Significantly decreased the frequency and duration of seizure spike-wave discharges (SWDs) in doses of 50 mg/kg.
Decreased the intensity of SWDs in smaller doses (20 mg/kg).
Animal Model: Alloxan (HY-W017227)-induced diabetes mellitus model in rats [3]
Dosage: 250 mg/ kg
Administration: Oral gavage (p.o.)
Result: Suppressed NLRP3 activity, as indicated by a significant decrease in the area of immunopositive pancreatocytes to (21,30 ± 5,44) and (39,31 ± 5,24) %, respectively, relative to the value in the group of animals that were not treated (75,19±7,69%).
Promoted correction of functional disorders of the pancreas during alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus by inhibiting activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in pancreatocytes.

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.
