Mechanism Of Action
Ziconotide/ is a N-type calcium channel blocker (NCCB). Voltage-sensitive calcium channel (VSCC) conduction plays a major role in the transmission of pain. The N-type VSCC's are found in high concentrations in the dorsal root ganglion cells responsible for the spinal processing of pain. Ziconotide selectively and reversibly binds to and blocks these channels without interacting with other ion channels or cholinergic, monoaminergic or mu and delta-opioid receptors. Ziconotide thus inhibits the spinal signalling of pain.
In Vitro
Nifedipine and omega-agatoxin IVA dose dependently (IC50 values of 10 nM and 0.7 nM, respectively) blocked most of the release, whereas omega-conotoxin MVIIA (IC50 = 5 nM) caused partial blockage.
In Vivo
In pithed rats, omega-conotoxin MVIIA preferentially suppressed the sympathetic nerve stimulation-induced pressor response, whereas cilnidipine suppressed the pressor response induced by sympathetic nerve stimulation and angiotensin II. In anesthetized rats, cilnidipine or omega-conotoxin MVIIA decreased mean blood pressure, while heart rate was decreased by omega-conotoxin MVIIA, but slightly increased by cilnidipine.
