Abstract
Propylisopropylacetamide (PID) is a chiral CNS-active constitutional isomer of valpromide, the amide derivative of the major antiepileptic drug valproic acid (VPA). The purpose of this work was: a) To evaluate enantiospecific activity of PID on tactile allodynia in the Chung (spinal nerve ligation, SNL) model of neuropathic pain in rats; b) To evaluate possible sedation at effective antiallodynic doses, using the rotorod ataxia test; c) To investigate enantioselectivity in the pharmacokinetics of (R)- and (S)-PID in comparison to (R,S)-PID; and d) To determine electrophysiologically whether PID has the potential to affect tactile allodynia by suppressing ectopic afferent discharge in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). (R)-, (S)- and (R,S)-PID produced dose-related reversal of tactile allodynia with ED(50) values of 46, 48, 42 mg/kg, respectively. The individual PID enantiomers were not enantioselective in their antiallodynic activity. No sedative side-effects were observed at these doses. Following i.p. administration of the individual enantiomers, (S)-PID had lower clearance (CL) and volume of distribution (V) and a shorter half-life (t(1/2)) than (R)-PID. However following administration of (R,S)-PID, both enantiomers had s...Continue Reading
