Summary

U-0521 is the inhibitor of the catechol-O-methyltransferase ( COMT ). U-0521 has the potential for the research of Parkinson's disease [1] .


IC50 & Target

COMT [1]


In Vitro

U-0521 inhibits RBC COMT activity in a dose-dependent manner with an IC 50 of 6 x10 -6 M [1] .

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.


In Vivo

U-0521 (i.p.; 0-250 mg/kg; 10 min) inhibits COMT activity in a dose-dependent manner. 50% inhibition of enzyme activity is obtained at 90 mg/kg and maximum inhibition of 90% is obtained at 250 mg/kg [1] .

Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (180-250 g) [1]
Dosage: 0-250 mg/kg
Administration: i.p.; 10 min
Result: Inhibited COMT activity in a dose-dependent manner. 50% inhibition of enzyme activity was obtained at 90mg/kg and maximum inhibition of 90% was obtained at 250 mg/kg.
