Sipatrigine is a neuroprotective agent and derivative of lamotrigine (Item No. 15428).1 It inhibits neuronal voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels in a voltage-dependent manner. Sipatrigine reduces the neuronal firing frequency and decreases the amplitude of excitatory post-synaptic potentials (EPSPs) in electrically stimulated rat corticostriatal slices (EC50s = 4.5 and 2 µM, respectively).2 It inhibits veratrine-induced glutamate and aspartate release in rat cerebral cortex slices (IC50s = ~5 µM for both).3 Sipatrigine (30 mg/kg, i.v.) reduces infarct volume in a rat model of focal ischemia induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).4
