Description

Sumatriptan is a serotonin (5-HT1B/1D) receptor agonist indicated for acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults. Sumatriptan is structurally similar to serotonin (5-HT), and is a 5-HT receptor (types 5-HT1D and 5-HT1B) agonist. The specific receptor subtypes it activates are present on the cranial arteries and veins. Acting as an agonist at these receptors, sumatriptan reduces the vascular inflammation associated with migraines. The specific receptor subtype it activates is present in the cranial and basilar arteries. Activation of these receptors causes vasoconstriction of those dilated arteries. Sumatriptan is also shown to decrease the activity of the trigeminal nerve, which presumably accounts for sumatriptan's efficacy in treating cluster headaches. The injectable form of the drug has been shown to abort a cluster headache within 30 minutes in 77% of cases. Sumatriptan is effective for ending or relieving the intensity of migraine and cluster headaches. It is most effective taken early after the start of the pain. Injected sumatriptan is more effective than other formulations. Large doses of sumatriptan can cause sulfhemoglobinemia, a rare condition in which the blood changes from red to greenish-black, due to the integration of sulfur into the hemoglobin molecule. Serious cardiac events, including some that have been fatal, have occurred following the use of sumatriptan injection or tablets. Events reported have included coronary artery vasospasm, transient myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib).

In Vitro Use Guide

The uptake of sumatriptan and other triptans via OCT1 and OCT3 was characterized using HEK293 cells stably transfected to overexpress wild-type OCT1 or OCT3. For measuring the uptake in human hepatocytes, was used cryopreserved human hepatocytes (Gibco Life Technologies, Darmstadt, Germany) obtained from a single donor with two fully active OCT1 alleles. Triptan uptake in OCT1 and OCT3-overexpressing HEK293 cells was measured by incubating the cells with varying concentrations of the substrates in 12-well plates for two minutes at pH 7.4 and 378C. The reaction was stopped with ice-cold buffer, the cells were lysed with 80% acetonitrile, and the intracellularly accumulated triptans were quantified by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem massspectrometry.
