| 製品説明 | Tolcapone (Ro 40-7592) is a selective, potent and reversible of catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitor with Ki of 30 nM. |
|---|---|
| in vitro | Tolcapone functions as a selective peripheral and central COMT inhibitor, exerting no effect on adrenergic, serotonergic, or cholinergic receptors or other enzymes involved in synthesis or catabolism of catecholamines. [1] This compound produces a concentration-dependent decrease in COMT activity in liver homogenates of developing (3 days-old) and adult (60 days-old) rats with Vmax, Km and IC50 of 5.3 nM/mg/h, 3.3 μM, 41 nM, and 2.9 nM/mg/h, 13.1 μM, 720 nM, respectively. It also produces a concentration-dependent decrease in COMT activity in kidney of developing (3 days-old) and adult (60 days-old) rats with Vmax, Km and IC50 of 2.6 nM/mg/h, 2.7 μM, 8 nM, and 3.5 nM/mg/h, 24 μM, 177 nM, respectively. [2] |
| in vivo | Tolcapone orally administrated is able to crosses the blood-brain barrier. Acute administration of this compound increases basal levels of L-DOPA and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and decreases basal homovanillic acid (HVA) levels, but does not affect basal dopamine levels. [3] This compound (30 mg/kg p.o.) combined with benserazide (15 mg/kg p.o.) and a low dose of L-dopa (10 mg/kg p.o.) almost completely blockes (for about 6 h) the formation of 3-O-methyldopa (3-OMD) in brain and plasma, producing a long-lasting increase of L-DOPA in plasma and a parallel marked increase of L-DOPA and dopamine in the brain. [4] It displays behavioural and neurochemical benefits on animals. This chemical (30 mg/kg p.o.) increases the effect of L-DOPA (plus benserazide) on locomotor activity, reserpine-induced hypothermia, and catalepsy induced by pimozide, haloperidol and fluphenazine. It also increases locomotor hyperactivity induced by amphetamine or nomifensine, as well as stereotypy induced by amphetamine (but not apomorphine). [5] |
| キナーゼアッセイ | COMT activity assay | |
|---|---|---|
| COMT activity is evaluated by the ability of homogenates to methylate adrenaline to metanephrine. Aliquots of 0.5 mL of the homogenate are preincubated for 20min with 0.5 mL of phosphate buffer (0.5 mM); thereafter, the reaction mixture is incubated for 30 min with increasing concentrations of adrenaline (5 to 500 μM) in the presence of a saturating concentration (100μM) of the methyl donor (S-adenosyl-L-methionine); the incubation medium contains also pargyline (100 μM), MgCl2 (100 μM) and EGTA (1 mM). The preincubation and incubation are carried out at 37 ℃, in conditions of light protection, with continuous shaking and without oxygenation. In experiments conducted with the aim of studying the inhibitory effect of this compound on COMT activity, homogenates are preincubated for 15 min with increasing concentrations of this chemical (0.5 to 10,000 nM); the incubation is performed in the presence of a concentration of adrenaline three times the corresponding Km value, as determined in saturation experiments. At the end of the incubation period the tubes are transferred to ice and the reaction is stopped by the addition of 100 μL of perchloric acid (2 M). The samples are then centrifuged (200 g, 4 min, 4 ℃), and 500 μL aliquots of the supernatant filtered on microfilters are used for the assay of metanephrine. This procedure allows 99% extraction of catecholamines and their methylated metabolites. The assay of metanephrine is carried out by means of HPLC with electrochemical detection. | ||
