Description Taltirelin was marketed in Japan for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, in particular the improvement of ataxia due to spino-cerebellar degeneration (SCD); it is the first orally-active drug in this indication. This synthetic thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) analog is prepared by condensation of (S)-1-methyl-4,5-dihydroorotic acid with L-histidyl-Lprolinamide. It was shown that the S-configuration for all 3 chiral centers is crucial for CNS activity. Taltirelin is a potent agonist of the TRH receptors that shows significant effects on the cerebral monoamine systems when administered i.p. in rats. As TRH at 10-fold higher doses, taltirelin has been found to increase the extracellular levels of dopamine and its metabolites (DOPAC and HVA) as well as precursors and/or metabolites of noradrenaline and serotonin in different areas of the rat brain. Taltirelin produced an anti-ataxic activity in the Rolling mouse Nagoya, an ataxic mutant mouse. In several clinical studies performed in patients suffering from various forms of SCD, taltirelin demonstrated a statistically significant increase in the global improvement of ataxic symptoms and other neurologic abnormalities.
Uses Taltirelin is a thyrotropin-releasing hormone analog.
Uses Analog of thyrotropin releasing hormone TRH, with pronounced CNS activity. Used in the treatment of spinocerebellar degeneration.
