Comparative Evaluation of Antiparkinsonian, Anti-Inflammatory, and Analgesic Effects of Hemantane and Two 2-Aminoadamantane Derivatives Differing From it by a Bridgehead Hydroxyl

Abstract

2-Adamantylaminopropanol hydrochloride (ADK-971) and 5-hydroxyadamantan-2-ylaminopropanol hydrochloride (ADK-1013) were less active than hemantane in parkinsonian syndrome murine models. ADK-971 and AKD-1013, like hemantane at a dose of 20 mg/kg, exhibited comparable antiexudative effects in the mouse acetic peritonitis model. However, ADK-971 and ADK-1013 (20 mg/kg), in contrast to hemantane at the same dose, did not possess analgesic effects against visceral and thermal somatic pain in mice.
