We have recently reported inhibitory effects of carbamazepine (CBZ) on ion channel-mediated secretion of catecholamines in bovine adrenal medullary cells. Here, we report the effects of carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (CBZ-E), an active metabolite of CBZ, and carbamazepine-10,11-diol (CBZ-D), a non-active metabolite, on 22Na+ influx, 45Ca2+ influx and catecholamine secretion in cultured adrenal medullary cells. CBZ-E, but not CBZ-D inhibited 22Na+ influx, 45Ca2+ influx and catecholamine secretion induced by carbachol or veratridine with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 0.26 or 0.68 microg/ml, respectively. CBZ-E also inhibited high K+-evoked 45Ca2+ influx and catecholamine secretion (IC50 = 0.3 microg/ml), but CBZ-D did not. These findings suggest that CBZ-E, but not CBZ-D, attenuates catecholamine secretion by inhibiting nicotinic acetylcholine receptor-associated ion channels, voltage-dependent Na+ channels and voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels in the cells. This inhibition of CBZ-E as well as CBZ may be related to the clinical effects in neuropsychiatric disorders.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
