Biological Activity
| Description | Isovaleramide(3-Methylbutanamide) is an anticonvulsant molecule isolated from Valeriana pavonii, it inhibits the liver alcohol dehydrogenases. | |
|---|---|---|
| Targets |
|
|
| In vitro | Isovaleramide is isolated from the most active fraction of Valeriana pavonii. Isovaleramide (300 µM) exhibits a 42% of inhibition of the binding of ³H-FNZ to its sites in the in vitro assay. [1] Isovaleramide is without effect at concentrations up to 1000 μM in a variety of in vitro neurotransmitter binding or uptake assays, suggesting that its action does not involve a direct receptor-mediated effect at those systems studied. [2] Isovaleramide (0.15%) induces the formation of nitrile hydratase in Rhodococcus sp. YH 3-3. [3] |
|
| In vivo | Isovaleramide (100 mg/Kg, p.o) evidences a 90% index protection against the maximal electroshock seizure in mice (MES). [1] Isovaleramide produces a consistent pattern of signs at relatively high doses in extensive safety studies in rats, rabbits, and dogs. Isovaleramide shows a significantly lower potential for reproductive toxicity than VPA in several reproductive toxicity studies conducted in mice, rats and rabbits. [2] |
