Product Data
Biological target:
Diphenamid is an inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase.
In vitro activity:
TBD
In vivo activity:
The insect repellent DEET and the structurally related herbicide diphenamid both cause ataxia associated with a spongiform myelinopathy largely confined to the rat cerebellar roof nuclei. This local myelinopathy was accompanied by the formation of neuronal cytoplasmic clefts and was produced by a single dose of 1 to 3 g/kg N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET). These dose levels also produced a severe and often fatal prostration and clear electrophysiological signs of prolonged suppressed seizure activity. Diphenamid produced an identical myelinopathy after doses of 0.8 to 1.5 g/kg but without the severe prostration, suppressed seizures, or neuronal clefts.
