Biological Activity

Description Pyrilamine Maleate (Mepyramine)is a histamine H1 receptor inverse agonist, it binds to a G protein-coupled form of the receptor and promotes a G protein-coupled inactive state of the H1 receptor that interferes with the Gq/11-mediated signaling.
In vitro Pyrilamine blocks the rapidly activating component of the delayed rectifier, IKr, with IC50 of 1.1 μM. Pyrilamine (10 μM) blocks the slowly activating component of the delayed rectifier, IKs and the inward rectifier, IK1 less than 20%. [1]
In vivo Pyrilamine (15 mg/kg/day) significantly decreases the movement time and velocity, as well as the total food consumption and completely abolishes the circadian rhythmicity of locomotion in sham-operated rats. Pyrilamine (15 mg/kg/day) leads to the complete blockade of H(1) receptors in both sham- and portacaval anastomosis-operated rats. [2] Pyrilamine decreases the number of flinches in a dose dependent manner and decreases c-fos mRNA expression in lumbar spinal cord of rats. [3] Pyrilamine is mainly metabolited into the O-glucuronic acid conjugate of O-demethyl pyrilamine in the rats. The terminal plasma elimination half-life of Pyrilamine does not increase with increasing doses (2.3 hours, 0.7 mg/kg; 1.5 hours, 7.0 mg/kg) and thus pyrilamine does not exhibit dose-dependent elimination. [4] Pyrilamine is slightly less mutagenic than Methapyrilene over a comparable range of concentrations, and also induces predominantly small-colony mutants in the L5178Y/TK +/- mouse lymphoma assay.
