product name Isovaleramide
Description: Isovaleramide is an anticonvulsant molecule isolated from Valeriana pavonii, it inhibits the liver alcohol dehydrogenases. It is isolated from the most active fraction of Valeriana pavonii. Isovaleramide (300 µM) exhibits a 42% of inhibition of the binding of ³H-FNZ to its sites in the in vitro assay. Isovaleramide showed no effect at concentrations up to 1000 μM in a variety of in vitro neurotransmitter binding or uptake assays, suggesting that its action does not involve a direct receptor-mediated effect at those systems studied.

In Vivo | Isovaleramide (100 mg/Kg, p.o) evidences a 90% index protection against the maximal electroshock seizure in mice (MES). Isovaleramide produces a consistent pattern of signs at relatively high doses in extensive safety studies in rats, rabbits, and dogs. Isovaleramide shows a significantly lower potential for reproductive toxicity than VPA in several reproductive toxicity studies conducted in mice, rats and rabbits. |
