Bioactivity

In Vivo
(E)-3, 4, 5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (0-20 mg/kg, IP, once) shows anti-seizure effects. (E)-3, 4, 5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (0-10 mg/kg, Orally, once) enhances hypnotic effects in pentobarbital-treated mice. Animal model: Ault male KunMing-strain mice (18-20 g, maximal electroshock (MES) and pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) models). Dosage: 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg; 10 mL/kg. Administration: IP, once. Result: Significantly decreased the incidence of MES-induced THE (tonic hindlimb extension) to 50% and 20% of the value of the vehicle controls at 10 and 20 mg/kg. Decreased the incidence of MES-induced THE to only 80% at 5 mg/kg. Significantly delayed the onset of myoclonic jerks (MJ), and decreased the seizure severity and mortality compared with the vehicle-treated animals in PTZ seizure model. The incidence of generalized clonic convulsions (stage 4) disappeared at doses of both 10 and 20 mg/kg. Animal model: ICR male mice (25-28 g, 10-12 in each group). Dosage: 2, 5 and 10 mg/kg. Administration: Orally (p.o.), once, 15 min and 1 h prior to pentobarbital injection. Result: Significantly decreased locomotor activity at 10 mg/kg. Increased NREM and total sleep, but decreased wakefulness.
In Vitro
(E)-3, 4, 5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (10 μg/mL, 1 h) increases the expressions of GAD65 and γ-subunit of GABAA receptors in the cerebellar granule cells. (E)-3, 4, 5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (0-10 μg/mL, 1 h) shows a significant increase in Cl- influx. Western blot analysis. Cell line: Primary cultured cerebellar granule cells. Concentration: 10 μg/mL. Incubation time: 1 h. Result: Increased expression of GAD65 (glutamic acid decarboxylase) and γ-subunit of GABAA receptors, but did not influence the amounts of a-, b-subunits in the GABAA receptors. Cell Viability Assay Cell line: Primary cultured cerebellar granule cells. Concentration: 1, 3, 5, 10 μg/mL. Incubation time: 1 h. Result: Produced a significant increase in Cl- influx.
