Common NameDihydroergotamine
ClassSmall Molecule
Description
Dihydroergotamine belongs to the lysergic acids and derivatives, a subclass of ergoline and derivatives within the organic compounds. With an average molecular weight of 583.68 g/mol, Dihydroergotamine is a heavy molecule. This exogenous compound has the formula C33H37N5O5 and exists as a solid at room temperature. It is utilized as a vasoconstrictor agent, a non-narcotic analgesic, and a serotonergic agonist. Recorded exposure routes include intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous, and nasal administration. The substance is found in several recorded sources, including analgesics within healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products; food preservation within food, food processing, and cookware; electric hearing aids and electrically stimulated smoking devices within electrical and electronic equipment; and various household cleaning and consumer products, such as perfumes within detergents and soaps, tobacco product cases, cigar cigarettes, non electric simulated smoking devices, and other smoking requisites. Dihydroergotamine targets 23 proteins, including the Alpha-2A adrenergic receptor (ADRA2A), Solute carrier family 22 member 2 (SLC22A2), Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), Multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 2 (SLC47A2), and 12 other proteins. It acts as an agonist at the 5-HT receptors, specifically targeting 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors 1A (HTR1A), 1B (HTR1B), 1D (HTR1D), and 2A (HTR2A). It is believed to alleviate migraines through two possible mechanisms: the activation of 5-HT receptors on sensory nerve endings of the trigeminal system, resulting in the inhibition of pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release, or the activation of 5-HT receptors located on intracranial blood vessels, including those on arterio-venous anastomoses, which leads to vasoconstriction.

Toxicity / Toxin ClassNot Available
Mechanism of ToxicityTwo theories have been proposed to explain the efficacy of 5-HT1D receptor agonists in migraine: 1) activation of 5-HT1D receptors located on intracranial blood vessels, including those on arterio-venous anastomoses, leads to vasoconstriction, which correlates with the relief of migraine headache and 2) activation of 5-HT1D receptors on sensory nerve endings of the trigeminal system results in the inhibition of pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release.
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
SymptomsConvulsive ergotism can cause painful seizures and spasms, diarrhea, paresthesias, itching, headaches, nausea and vomiting. Usually the gastrointestinal effects precede the central nervous system effects. As well as seizures there can be hallucinations and mental effects including mania or psychosis. Gangrenous ergotism causes dry gangrene as a result of vasoconstriction induced in the more poorly vascularized distal structures, such as the fingers and toes. Symptoms include desquamation, weak periphery pulse, loss of peripheral sensation, edema and ultimately the death and loss of affected tissues. (9, 12)
TreatmentTreatment for ergotism consists of vasodilators, anticoagulants and low molecular weight dextrans. If necessary, a sympathetic nerve blockade may be carried out, such as brachial plexus blockade. Temporary sedation (e.g. haloperidol) will be necessary in hallucination and diazepam is used for convulsions. There is no specific antidote. (10, 12)

5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1D structureClick to view 3D structure5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 1DP28221HumansKnownDihydroergotamine acts as an agonist at the 5-HT receptors. It is believed to alleviate migraines by either 1) activating 5-HT receptors located on intracranial blood vessels, including those on arterio-venous anastomoses, leads to vasoconstriction or 2) activating 5-HT receptors on sensory nerve endings of the trigeminal system resulting in the inhibition of pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release.
