Uses

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory with analgesic and antipyretic effects

Definition

ChEBI: Latrepirdine is a member of methylpyridines and a pyridoindole. It has a role as a geroprotector.

Biological Activity

dimebolin is an orally-available antihistamine drug with a long history of clinical use in russia [1][2][3][4].dimebolin has been proposed to be useful for treating neurodegenerative disorders, including alzheimer's disease (ad) and huntington's disease (hd). dimebon might exhibit efficacy by blocking nmda receptors or voltage-gated ca2+ channels and by preventing mitochondrial permeability pore transition [3].dimebolin is an orally-available antihistamine drug. dimebon improved survival of cerebellar granule cells during long-term incubation with aβ25-35. dimebolin also blocked potential-dependent ca(2+) entry into neurons by about 20% by blocking l-type ca(2+) channels [4]. in the cerebellum cell culture, dimebolin protected neurons against the neurotoxic action of aβ25-35 with ec50 value of 25 μm. on isolated rat ileum intestine, dimebolin displayed ca2+-blocking properties with ic50 value of 57 μm. dimebon also exhibited anticholinesterase activity with ic50 values of 7.9 μm and 42 μm for butyryl-choline esterase and acetylcholine esterase, respectively [5].in rats treated with the neurotoxin af64a, dimebolin exhibited cognition and memory-enhancing properties. in mice, dimebolin prevented nmda-induced seizures with ec50 value of 42 ± 6 mg/kg [5].
