Application

Tofisopam has been used for studying its biochemical mechanisms of actions using drug repositioning strategies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ligand for the GABAA receptor benzodiazepine modulatory site.
Studies have reported that tofisopam functions by blocking PDE4 (phosphodiesterase 4). Furthermore, the S-enantiomer of tofisopam is considered ten times more active than R-enantiomer.

Preparation Note

Tofisopam is soluble in DMSO at approximately 14 mg/ml. However, it is insoluble in water.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of various drugs which present antidepressant properties: selective serotonin-reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs, fluoxetine), serotonin and noradrenaline-reuptake inhibitors (Desipramine) and phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDE, rolipram and tofisopam) on bone microarchitecture and biomechanical properties.

In vitro studies were conducted to elucidate the metabolic profiles of and the enzymes responsible for the metabolism of (R)- and (S)-tofisopam (1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-ethyl-7,8-dimethoxy-4-methyl-5H-2,3-benzodiazepine). Large differences were observed between the two enantiomers. The major metabolite in incubations of 500 ng/ml (approximately

A rapid and sensitive column-switching semi-micro HPLC method is described for the direct analysis of tofisopam in human serum. The sample (100 microL) was directly injected onto the precolumn (Capcell Pak MF Ph-1), where unretained proteins were eluted to waste.

The study demonstrated high anxiolytic activity of tenoten, which was not inferior to the anxiolytic effect of grandaxin. The positive changes persisted after termination of treatment in the tenoten group (but not in grandaxin group). Tenoten can be recommended for
