The absorption rate following oral administration is 80% in rats and >90% in dogs and monkeys. The metabolism of Asimadoline is rapid and appears similar in animals and man. Asimadoline has peripheral anti-inflammatory actions that are partly mediated through increase in joint fluid substance P levels[1]. Treatment with Asimadoline (5 mg/kg/day i.p.) produces marked (and sustained) attenuation of the disease with all three time regimes[2].
In Vitro
The IC50 for Asimadoline binding to μ-opioid receptors is 3 µM and to δ-opioid receptors is 0.7 µM. The IC50 values for D1, D2, kainate, σ, PCP/NMDA, H1, α1, α2, M1/M2, glycine, 5HT1A, 5HT1C, 5HT1D, 5HT2, 5HT3, AMPA and kainate/AMPA receptors are all >10 IC50, suggesting no relevant antihistaminergic, antiserotonergic or anticholinergic effects. At high concentrations, Asimadoline demonstrates spasmolytic action against 400 µM barium chloride in the rat duodenum (IC50=4.2 µM), suggesting that Asimadoline may block the direct stimulant effects of barium on smooth muscle through mechanisms that are not identified[1].
