Camostat mesilate Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Description

Camostat mesylate is a broad spectrum protease inhibitor useful in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis.

Chemical Properties

Crystalline Solid

Originator

Ono (Japan)

Uses

It is used as a protease and Trypsin inhibitor. Furthermore it was found that this water induction and bicarbonate secretion increase was achieved via direct regulation of ductular cells of the dog pancreas. Other studies have shown Camostat mesylate to suppress spinal Fos expression in the rat, which is a marker for neuronal activation. In addition it was shown that this compound may prevent or depress pancreatitis-induced referred allodynia/hyperalgesia in rat models. Camostat mesylate has also demonstrated the ability to prevent Trypsin attack of microspheres, which causes the degradation product N-benzoyl-dl-arginine. Camostat mesylate is an inhibitor of KLK, plasminogen, Prothrombin and Trypsin.

Uses

Orally active, non-peptide proteolitic enzyme inhibitor with anti-trypsin and anti-plasmin activities, related structurally to gabexate. Protease inhibitor

Definition

ChEBI: Camostat mesylate is a methanesulfonate (mesylate) salt prepared from equimolar amounts of camostat and methanesulfonic acid. It is a serine protease inhibitor approved and marketed in Japan in 1985 for the alleviation of acute symptoms associated with chronic pancreatitis. In 1994, it was approved for the treatment of postoperative reflux esophagitis. It has a role as an anticoronaviral agent, an anti-inflammatory agent, an antifibrinolytic drug, an antihypertensive agent, an antineoplastic agent, an antiviral agent and a serine protease inhibitor. It contains a camostat(1+).

brand name

FOIPAN

Biological Activity

Orally active protease inhibitor. Known to inhibit trypsin and various inflammatory proteases including plasmin, kallikrein and thrombin. Suppresses pancreatitis-induced pain in rats following oral administration.

storage

Desiccate at RT
