Picotamide is a platelet aggregation inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.76μM[1]. Picotamide can inhibit the thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor and TxA2 synthase, prevent platelet aggregation, and regulate the inflammatory process of atherosclerotic plaques[2]. Picotamide has been widely used as a model compound to develop a series of derivatives for inhibiting platelet aggregation[3].
In vitro, Picotamide treatment at 300μM for 45 minutes inhibited the contraction of hyperplastic human prostate smooth muscle induced by adrenergic and thromboxane[4]. Treatment with 300μM Picotamide for 45 minutes inhibited in the smooth muscle contractions induced by the phenylephrine, U46619, and electric field stimulation (EFS) in the lower urinary tract tissues[5]. Treatment with 300μM Picotamide for 30 minutes inhibited the smooth muscle contraction of the interlobular arteries in porcine renal interloba induced by phenylephrine [6].
In vivo, Picotamide treatment via intraperitoneal injection at a single dose of 375mg/kg 1 hour before thrombotic challenge could protect mice from death caused by intravenous injection of collagen plus epinephrine, and reduced the decline in circulating platelet count and pulmonary thromboembolism[7].

| Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models | Male Swiss CD1 mice |
Preparation Method | Male Swiss CD1 mice, weighing 20-25g, were caged and fed a regular diet for at least 1 week before use. Picotamide or vehicle was administered by intraperitoneal (i. p.) route, in a dose of 375mg/kg. One hour after the i. p. pretreatment of Picotamide, 100μl of a mixture of collagen (250μg/ml) and epinephrine (15μg/ml) in 0.154M NaCl was injected rapidly (in less than 2min) into a tail vein. Mouse blood anticoagulated with trisodium citrate 3.8% was collected by heart puncture under ether anesthesia and centrifuged for analysis. |
Dosage form | 375mg/kg for once; i.p. |
Applications | Picotamide treatment significantly reduced the drop in the number of circulating platelets in the blood of mice with pulmonary embolism. |
