Biological target:
ACT-709478 is a potent, selective, orally active, and brain penetrating T-type calcium channel blocker.
In vivo activity:
In WAG/Rij rats, 10 mg/kg po of 66b (ACT-709478), 66d, or 66e significantly decreased the cumulative duration of absence-like seizures over the next 12 h period by 93, 35, and 79%, respectively, compared to a matched vehicle group (p < 0.001 for 66b and 66e and p < 0.01 for 66d, paired t test, Figure 5a,c,e). Compounds 66b and 66e completely suppressed the absence-type seizures over the first 6 h following administration (Figure 5a,e).

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
