Biological Activity

Cyclobenzaprine is a skeletal muscle relaxant and a central nervous system (CNS) depressant. Cyclobenzaprine was thought to be an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist that reduced muscle tone by decreasing the activity of descending noradrenergic neurons. Cyclobenzaprine reduced the monosynaptic reflex amplitude dose dependently and this effect was not inhibited by the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonists idazoxan and yohimbine. Cyclobenzaprine-induced monosynaptic reflex depression was not attenuated by noradrenergic neuronal lesions produced by 6-hydroxydopamine. Cyclobenzaprine is a 5-HT2 receptor antagonist and that its muscle relaxant effect is due to inhibition of serotonergic, not noradrenergic, descending systems in the spinal cord. The inhibitory effects of cyclobenzaprine on mono- and polysynaptic reflex potentials are due to the inhibition of descending serotonergic systems through 5-HT(2) receptors in the spinal cord.

Conversion of different model animals based on BSA (PMID: 27057123)
Species Mouse Rat Rabbit Guinea pig Hamster Dog
Weight (kg) 0.02 0.15 1.8 0.4 0.08 10
Body Surface Area (m2) 0.007 0.025 0.15 0.05 0.02 0.5
Km factor 3 6 12 8 5 20
Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by  Animal B Km
Animal A Km

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
