High impact information on alpha-Propylvaleramide

  • In contrast, valpromide, an analogue of VPA that does not induce histone acetylation, does not induce demethylation or expression of CMV-GFP [5].
  • The VPA derivative N-methyl-2,2,3,3,-tetramethyl-cyclopropane carboxamide reduces MIP synthase activity and has an affect similar to that of VPA on rat neurons, whereas another VPA derivative, valpromide, poorly affects the activity and has no affect on neurons [6].
  • The log metabolic ratio detected pronounced inhibition of epoxide hydrolase by valpromide (six subjects; median ratio, 0.91) and induction by phenobarbital/phenytoin (six subjects; median ratio, 2.42) [7].
  • Valpromide (KI = 5 mumol/L) was 100 times more potent than valproic acid (KI = 550 mumol/L) as an inhibitor of carbamazepine epoxide hydrolysis in microsomes [8].
  • Compared with valproic acid. valpromide has a very short half-life (mean +/- SD: 0.84 +/- 0.33h; n = 6), a high clearance value (70 +/- 31 L/h) and a large volume of distribution (75 +/- 13L) [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of alpha-Propylvaleramide

  • Whereas plasma peak levels and signs of central nervous system depression occur within a few hours after the acute ingestion of regular-release forms of valproate sodium, delayed toxicity and time to peak levels following valpromide ingestion can be seen as shown by the three reported cases [3].
 

Biological context of alpha-Propylvaleramide

 

Anatomical context of alpha-Propylvaleramide

  • Valpromide (0.5-2.0 mM) did not increase histone acetylation or P-gp expression in rat livers, but induced CYP3A expression.Conclusions:Valproic acid increased P-gp expression and function in human tumour cell lines and in rat liver [13].
