Lisuride, sold under the brand name Dopergin among others, is a monoaminergic medication of the ergoline class which is used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, migraine, and high prolactin levels. [1] It is taken by mouth. [1]

Contents

Side effects of lisuride include nausea and vomiting, dizziness, headache, fatigue or drowsiness, insomnia or sleep, gastrointestinal disturbances such as abdominal pain or diarrhea, nasal congestion or runny nose, and hypotension, hallucinations or confusion (particularly at higher doses). Rarely, serious side effects such as cardiac or pulmonary fibrosis have been reported with long-term use, but they are extremely uncommon. [3]

Lisuride acts as a mixed agonist and antagonist of dopamine, serotonin, and adrenergic receptors. [1] [4] [5] [6] Activation of specific dopamine receptors is thought to be responsible for its effectiveness in the treatment of Parkinson's disease and ability to suppress prolactin levels, [1] while interactions with serotonin receptors are thought to be principally involved in its effectiveness for migraine. [7] [8]

Medical uses

Lisuride is used to lower prolactin and, in low doses, to prevent migraine attacks. [1] The use of lisuride as initial antiparkinsonian medication for Parkinson's disease has been advocated, delaying the need for levodopa until lisuride becomes insufficient for controlling the parkinsonian symptoms. [1] [ additional citation(s) needed ] Evidence is insufficient to support lisuride in the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease as an alternative to levodopa or bromocriptine. [9] [10]

Side effects

Side effects of lisuride include nausea and lowered blood pressure, among others. [3]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Lisuride is a ligand of dopamine, serotonin, and adrenergic receptors as well as the histamine H1 receptor. [4] It has sub-nanomolar affinity for the dopamine D2, and D3 receptors, serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT1D receptors, and α2A-, α2B-, and α2C-adrenergic receptors, and low-nanomolar affinity for the dopamine D1, D4, and D5 receptors, serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors, α1A-, α1B-, and α1D-adrenergic receptors, and histamine H1 receptor. [4] [11] [12] Lisuride is a partial agonist of the D2, D3, D4, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C, 5-HT5A, and H1 receptors, a full or near-full agonist of the 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT1D receptors, and a silent antagonist of the 5-HT2B receptor and α1A-, α2A-, α2B-, and α2C-adrenergic receptors. [5] [6] [12] [13] [14] [15] Due to its highly non-selective pharmacological activity, lisuride is described as a "dirty drug". [1] The effectiveness of lisuride in Parkinson's disease and hyperprolactinemia is thought to be mostly due to activation of dopamine D2 receptors. [1]

While lisuride has a similar receptor binding profile to the more well-known and chemically similar ergoline lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD; N,N-diethyllysergamide) and acts as a partial agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A receptor likewise, [6] it lacks the psychedelic effects of LSD and hence is non-hallucinogenic. [16] [1] Research suggests that the lack of psychedelic effects with lisuride arises from biased agonism of the 5-HT2A receptor. Stimulation of the 5-HT2A protomer within the 5-HT2AmGlu2 receptor complex evokes psychedelic effects, while these effects do not occur during sole stimulation of monomeric 5-HT2A receptors. Accordingly, different G proteins are involved. [17] [18] Lisuride behaves as an agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor monomer. Since it competitively antagonizes the effects of LSD, it may be regarded as a protomer antagonist of the 5-HT2A–mGluR heteromer. [19] GPCR oligomers are discrete entities and usually possess properties distinct from their parent monomeric receptors.

Lisuride dose-dependently suppresses prolactin levels due to its dopaminergic activity. [1] [20] As an antagonist of the 5-HT2B receptor, lisuride has no risk of cardiac valvulopathy in contrast to related ergolines like pergolide and cabergoline. [1]

Minute amounts of lisuride suppress the firing of dorsal raphe serotonergic neurons, presumably due to agonist activity at 5-HT1A receptors. [21] Noradrenergic neurons of the locus coeruleus were accelerated by the drug at somewhat higher doses, consistent with α1-adrenergic receptor antagonist activity. Pars compacta dopamine neurons demonstrated a variable response.

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption of lisuride from the gastrointestinal tract with oral administration is complete. [3] The absolute bioavailability of lisuride is 10 to 20% due to high first-pass metabolism. [3] The plasma protein binding of lisuride is 60 to 70%. [3] Peak levels of lisuride occur 60 to 80 minutes after ingestion with high variability between individuals. [3] The elimination half-life of lisuride is approximately 2 hours. [3] This is shorter than most other dopamine agonists. [3] Lisuride has more than 15 known metabolites. [3]

Chemistry

Lisuride is described as the free base and as the hydrogen maleate salt. [23] [24] [25]

Bromination of lisuride gives bromerguride (2-bromolisuride), which has a "reversed pharmacodynamic profile" compared to that of lisuride. [26]

History

Lisuride was synthesized by Zikán and Semonský at the Research Institute for Pharmacy and Biochemistry at Prague (later SPOFA) as an antimigraine agent analogous to methysergide and was described in 1960. [1] [27] It was marketed by the early 1970s. [28]

Society and culture

Generic names

Lisuride is the INN Tooltip International Nonproprietary Name and lysuride is the BAN Tooltip British Approved Name. [23] [29] [24] [25]

Brand names

Lisuride has been sold under brand names including Arolac, Cuvalit, Dopagon, Dopergin, Dopergine, Eunal, Lisenil, Lizenil, Lysenyl, Proclacam, Prolacam, and Revanil. [23] [24] [25] [1]

Availability

Lisuride was previously more widely available throughout the world, [24] [1] but as of 2020 it appears to be marketed only in Egypt, France, Italy, Kuwait, Lebanon, Mexico, New Zealand, and Pakistan. [25] Lisuride is not currently available in the United States, as the drug was not a commercial success.

Research

Preliminary clinical research suggests that transdermal administration of lisuride may be useful in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. [1] As lisuride has poor bioavailability when taken orally and has a short half-life, continuous transdermal administration offers significant advantages and could make the compound a much more consistent therapeutic agent. [1] Lisuride was under development as a transdermal patch and subcutaneous implant for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, restless legs syndrome, and dyskinesias in the 2000s and 2010s, but development was discontinued. [30] [31]

Dopamine receptor D<sub>2</sub> Main receptor for most antipsychotic drugs

Dopamine receptor D2, also known as D2R, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the DRD2 gene. After work from Paul Greengard's lab had suggested that dopamine receptors were the site of action of antipsychotic drugs, several groups, including those of Solomon H. Snyder and Philip Seeman used a radiolabeled antipsychotic drug to identify what is now known as the dopamine D2 receptor. The dopamine D2 receptor is the main receptor for most antipsychotic drugs. The structure of DRD2 in complex with the atypical antipsychotic risperidone has been determined.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">S32212</span> Chemical compound

S32212 is a drug which is under preclinical investigation as a potential antidepressant medicine. It behaves as a selective, combined 5-HT2C receptor inverse agonist and α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist (at all three subtypes—α2A, α2B, and α2C) with additional 5-HT2A and, to a lesser extent, 5-HT2B receptor antagonistic properties, and lacks any apparent affinity for the monoamine reuptake transporters or for the α1-adrenergic, H1, or mACh receptors. This profile of activity is compatible with the definition of a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA), and as such, S32212 could in turn be classified as a NaSSA.

Peripherally selective drugs have their primary mechanism of action outside of the central nervous system (CNS), usually because they are excluded from the CNS by the blood–brain barrier. By being excluded from the CNS, drugs may act on the rest of the body without producing side-effects related to their effects on the brain or spinal cord. For example, most opioids cause sedation when given at a sufficiently high dose, but peripherally selective opioids can act on the rest of the body without entering the brain and are less likely to cause sedation. These peripherally selective opioids can be used as antidiarrheals, for instance loperamide (Imodium).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Prolactin modulator</span> Drug class

A prolactin modulator is a drug which affects the hypothalamic–pituitary–prolactin axis by modulating the secretion of the pituitary hormone prolactin from the anterior pituitary gland. Prolactin inhibitors suppress and prolactin releasers induce the secretion of prolactin, respectively.
