(194) The cerebral cortex of rats was harvested in a 10-fold volume (w/v) of ice-cold 0.32 M sucrose/5 mM Tris-acetic acid (pH 7.4) and homogenized. The synaptic plasma membrane was prepared by sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and preserved in a Tris-acetic acid (pH 7.4) buffer, which was resuspended in a 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.4) buffer immediately before use. The test compounds were each dissolved in 1% DMSO and prepared into serial dilutions (1 nM to 1000 nM), which were added to the suspension of synaptic plasma membrane (approximately 0.05 to 0.1 mg total protein) together with 20 nM [.sup.3H] gabapentin, followed by incubation at 25 C. for 30 minutes. After the reaction was completed, the reaction system was vacuum-filtered against a Whatman GFB filter membrane. The filter membrane was then washed three times with 5 mL 100 mM ice-cold sodium chloride solutions, and the radioactivity of the filter membrane was determined by liquid scintillation counting. Non-specific binding was blocked with 100 M gabapentin. The inhibition of the binding of radiolabeled gabapentin to the synaptic plasma membrane by the test compounds was calculated and the IC.sub.50 of the compounds was calculated. The experimental results are shown in Table 1.

(197) L5-L6 Spinal Nerve Ligation (SNL) Animal Model

(198) In an environment for animal operations, 6-7 week old SD male rats (purchased from Vital River Laboratory) were anesthetized with 5% isoflurane. The anesthetized animals were placed in a prone position, and incised at the 5th lumbar vertebrae, at which the incision was opened to expose the left paravertebral muscle which was teared layer by layer to expose the L5 and L6 spinal nerves. The distal ends of the L5 and L6 dorsal root ganglia were ligated with a 4-0 surgical wire. The muscles and skin were sutured layer by layer and the animals were allowed to recover for one week.

(199) After the model animals recovered, the contact pain of the animals was tested with Von Frey hairs (DanMic Global; USA). The up and down method was used to measure the force exerted by animals upon 50% paw withdrawal threshold (g; 50% PWT). Animals having 50%-PWT force of 1-5 g were enrolled first. Baseline values of the animals were measured before administration of the compounds, followed by oral administration of different compounds (formulated with 5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose), and the pain response of the animals at different time points was tested in the test range of 1.0 g to 15 g. The experimental results are shown in FIG. 1.

For the oral administration group, the compounds were formulated into 1.0 mg/mL suspensions with a 0.5% methylcellulose (MC) solution, and 200 l blood was sampled before administration and 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h and 24 h after administration. For the intravenous injection (I.V.) group, the compounds were formulated into 1.0 mg/ml solutions with physiological saline, and blood was sampled before administration and 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h and 24 h after administration. The blood samples were all anticoagulated with heparin, and centrifuged at 5500 rpm for 10 min to collect plasma, which was stored at 20 C. 10 l plasma of rats for each of the time points was mixed with a 500 l acetonitrile solution containing an internal standard, vortexed for 10 min, and centrifuged at 3700 rpm for 18 min. 50 l of the supernatant was mixed with 100 l water and vortexed for 10 min. 5 l of the mixture was subjected to an LC-MS/MS analysis to determine the blood drug level of the parent drugs. The main pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed using the software WinNonlin 6.3 at the non-compartment mode. The experimental results are shown in Table 2.
