Biological Activity

Ro 61-8048 is a potent and selective inhibitors of kynurenine hydroxylase with IC50 of 37 nM. In the present study, intrastriatal injections of Ro 61-8048 (60-80 microg/hemisphere) significantly reduced the severity of dystonia in dt(sz) hamsters, suggesting that kynurenine 3-hydroxylase inhibitors may be interesting candidates for managing dyskinesias which are related to striatal dysfunction. Ro 61-8048 increases brain KYNA levels and attenuates cannabinoid-induced increases in extracellular dopamine in reward-related brain areas. In the self-administration model of compound abuse, Ro 61-8048 reduced the rewarding effects of THC and the synthetic cannabinoid WIN 55,212-2 in squirrel monkeys and rats, respectively, and it also prevented relapse to drug-seeking induced by reexposure to cannabinoids or cannabinoid-associated cues. The effects of enhancing endogenous KYNA levels with Ro 61-8048 were prevented by positive allosteric modulators of α7nAChRs.

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.
