- W4206230153 abstract "Fenfluramine (N-ethyl-α-methl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenethylamine) is an anti-seizure medication (ASM) particularly effective in patients with Dravet syndrome, a severe treatment-resistant epileptic encephalopathy. Fenfluramine acts not only as neuronal serotonin (5-HT) releaser but also as a positive modulator of the sigma-1 receptor (S1R). We here examined the modulatory activity of Fenfluramine on the S1R-mediated anti-amnesic response in mice using combination analyses. Fenfluramine and Norfenfluramine, racemate and isomers, were combined with either the S1R agonist (PRE-084) or the S1R-acting neuro(active)steroids, pregnenolone sulfate (PREGS), Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), or progesterone. We report that Fenfluramine racemate or (+)-Fenfluramine, in the 0.1-1 mg/kg dose range, attenuated the dizocilpine-induced learning deficits in spontaneous alternation and passive avoidance, and showed low-dose synergies in combination with PRE-084. These effects were blocked by the S1R antagonist NE-100. Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate or PREGS attenuated dizocilpine-induced learning deficits in the 5-20 mg/kg dose range. Co-treatments at low dose between steroids and Fenfluramine or (+)-Fenfluramine were synergistic. Progesterone blocked Fenfluramine effect. Finally, Fenfluramine and (+)-Fenfluramine effects were prevented by the 5-HT1A receptor antagonist WAY-100635 or 5-HT2A antagonist RS-127445, but not by the 5-HT1B/1D antagonist GR 127935 or the 5-HT2C antagonist SB 242084, confirming a 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptor involvement in the drug effect on memory. We therefore confirmed the positive modulation of Fenfluramine racemate or dextroisomer on S1R and showed that, in physiological conditions, the drug potentiated the low dose effects of neuro(active)steroids, endogenous S1R modulators. The latter are potent modulators of the excitatory/inhibitory balance in the brain, and their levels must be considered in the antiepileptic action of Fenfluramine." @default.
