Anwendung

Valnoctamide has been used:
  • as a mood stabilizer to study its anti-cytomegalovirus (anti-CMV) effects in newborn mice brain
  • as a hypnotic sedative to study its cytotoxic effects on oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and human oligodendroglioma cell line (HOG)
  • as a mood stabilizer to study its effects on inhibition of human cytomegalovirus

Biochem./physiol. Wirkung

Valnoctamide exhibits anti-cytomegalovirus (anti-CMV) properties. It has therapeutic effects against status epilepticus (SE) and neuropathic pain. Valnoctamide also shows therapeutic effects against bipolar disorders.
Valproic acid (VPA) and derivatives such as valpromide and valnoctamide are anti-convulsant, mood stabilizing drugs, believed to function as indirect GABA agonists by inhibiting the transamination of GABA.

Glutamine is a common precursor for the biosynthesis of both glutamate and GABA. Glutamine can be transported in and out of neurons and astrocytes utilizing different glutamine carriers. The neurotransmitter glutamate can be synthesized from glutamine by the action of phosphate-activated glutaminase.
