(Rac)-Modipafant (UK-74505) (10 mg/kg; p.o.; twice a day until day 10) prevents Severe Dengue Infection[3].
(Rac)-Modipafant exhibits highly selective, time-dependent inhibition of PAF-induced aggregation of rabbit washed platelets (IC50=26.3 and 1.12 nM after 0.25 and 60 min preincubation, respectively)[4].
(Rac)-Modipafant (5-20 mg/kg; p.o.) dose-dependently inhibits the Zymosan -induced articular hyperalgesia[5].
| Animal Model: | 8- to 10-week-old BALB/c mice (DEN-2 strain infected)[3] |
| Dosage: | 10 mg/kg |
| Administration: | P.o.; twice a day (started on days 0, 3, 5, or 7) until day 10 |
| Result: | Decreased by approximately 50% the lethality associated with DEN-2 infection.
|
| Animal Model: | Male BALB/C (8- to 10- week-old) wild-type mice[5] |
| Dosage: | 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg |
| Administration: | P.o. |
| Result: | Dose-dependently inhibited the Zymosan -induced articular hyperalgesia.
