Application

Entacapone has been used in high-performance bioaffinity chromatography.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Entacapone acts predominantly in the intestine. It increases the bioavailability of levodopa. Levodopa is known to be associated with many complications such as motor fluctuations. COMT inhibitors have been used to overcome these adverse effects of levodopa by reducing its metabolism. Entacapone exhibits its inhibition action on COMT in the peripheral nervous system.
Entacapone is a catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT) inhibitor. Used in treatment of Parkinson′s disease, entacapone is administered with L-DOPA to inihibit COMT from converting L-DOPA into a compound that cannot cross the blood brain barrier.

Dopamine encodes reward and its prediction in reinforcement learning. Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been shown to influence cognitive abilities by modifying dopamine clearance. Nevertheless, it is unknown how COMT in the mPFC influences operant

Reduced levels of noradrenaline (NA) in CNS of multiple sclerosis patients could be due to metabolism by catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT). In mice immunized with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide, the BBB-permeable COMT inhibitor dinitrocatechol (DNC) reduced clinical signs, while entacapone, a non-BBB-permeable
