Dược Lực Học :
Ganaxolone is a powerful positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors with potency and efficacy comparable to its endogenous analog 3a,5a-P (Carter et al., 1997). As with 3a,5a-P, Ganaxolone potentiation of the GABAA receptor occurs at a site distinct from the benzodiazepine site. Ganaxolone has protective activity in diverse rodent seizure models, including clonic seizures induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) and bicuculline (BIC), limbic seizures in the 6 Hz model, and amygdala kindled seizures (Carter et al., 1997; Rogawski and Reddy, 2004; Kaminski et al., 2004).
Cơ Chế Tác Dụng :
Ganaxolone is the 3β-methylated synthetic analog of allopregnanolone; it belongs to a class of compounds referred to as neurosteroids. Ganaxolone is an allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors acting through binding sites which are distinct from the benzodiazepine binding site. It has activity in a broad range of animal models of epilepsy. Ganaxolone has been shown to be well tolerated in adults and children. In early phase II studies, Ganaxolone has been shown to have activity in adult patients with partial-onset seizures and epileptic children with history of infantile spasms. It is currently undergoing further development in infants with newly diagnosed infantile spasms, in women with catamenial epilepsy, and in adults with refractory partial-onset seizures.
Ganaxolone belongs to a novel class of neuroactive steroids called epalons, which specifically modulate the γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor in the central nervous system (CNS). Chemically related to progesterone but devoid of any hormonal activity, the epalons have potent antiepileptic, anxiolytic, sedative, and hypnotic activities in animals.
