Biochem/physiol Actions

Z944 is an orally available, state-dependent, potent and selective T-type calcium channel blocker (hCav3.1/Cav3.2/Cav3.3 IC50 by voltage clamp = 50/160/110 nM under ~30% inactivated state & 130/540/260 nM in the closed state) over non-T-type voltage-gated channels (rCaV2.2 IC50 = 11 μM/30% inactivated & 150 μM/closed; hERG/rCaV1.2/hNaV1.5 IC50 = 7.8/32/100 μM). Z944 effectively suppresses seizure activity in the GAERS (absence epilepsy rats from Strasbourg) model in vivo (10-30 mg/kg qod ip.) with no adverse cardiovascular effects or neurotoxicity.

The physiological, intrinsic activity of noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) neurons is important for the control of sleep/wakefulness, cognition and autonomous body functions. Dysregulations of the LC-noradrenergic network contribute to the pathogenesis of psychiatric disorders and are key findings in early

The role of T-type calcium channels in brain diseases such as absence epilepsy and neuropathic pain has been studied extensively. However, less is known regarding the involvement of T-type channels in cognition and behavior. Prepulse inhibition (PPI) is a measure

Childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) is associated with interictal co-morbid symptoms including abnormalities in social behaviour. Genetic Absence Epilepsy Rats from Strasbourg (GAERS) is a model of CAE that exhibits physiological and behavioural alterations characteristic of the human disorder. However, it

Currently available antipsychotics are unsatisfactory given their side effects and limited efficacy for the cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. Many currently available drugs, such as haloperidol, are T-type calcium channel antagonists in addition to their well-established antagonism of dopamine D2 receptors.

Neuropeptide substance P (SP) is produced and released by a subset of peripheral sensory neurons that respond to tissue damage (nociceptors). SP exerts excitatory effects in the central nervous system, but peripheral SP actions are still poorly understood; therefore, here
