05.0 PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
05.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Pharmacotherapeutic group: healing,
ATC code PLACENTEX INTEGRO, PLACENTEX 50%: V03AX
PLACENTEX 10%, PLACENTEX POMATA: D03AX49
PLACENTEX EYE DROPS: S01XA49
The active principle of PLACENTEX is Polydexoxyribonucleotide (PDRN), a natural product, obtained by selective extraction with an original technology from the Mastelli Laboratory. PDRN is chemically a linear polyanion, whose monomer units consist of deoxyribonucleotides joined by a phosphodiester bond; has an Average Molecular Weight of about 350 K.D. and it is heat resistant. This feature also made it possible to use the classic hot treatment procedure in an autoclave at 121 ° C, obtaining the maximum guarantee of sterility. PDRN has a traditional and documented effect in connective tissue repair and trophism. This effect occurs both with the tropism of the active principle towards the damaged focus, through the complex that is formed by the affinity of the PDRN towards platelets and fibronectin, and with the stimulus to cell regeneration. This last effect is ascribed: in part to the synergistic action of the PDRN and its metabolites with the growth factors and in part to the activation of the metabolic pathways of the "salvage" which involve significant energy savings in the neo-synthesis of DNA, phase essential for tissue repair.
05.2 "Pharmacokinetic properties
The active component of the drug follows the normal metabolism of endogenous and exogenous polydeoxyribonucleotides.
05.3 Preclinical safety data
The drug is characterized by an undetectable toxicity at the maximum administrable doses. Acute toxicity studies on rats and mice did not allow to identify the LD50 which was higher than the maximum administrable doses (30 ml / kg Placularx Integro). Systemic chronic toxicity studies on the basis of 1 ml / kg / day of the same preparation did not determine either mortality or obvious pathologies affecting the individual organs studied macro and microscopically, or alterations to the general state of health. Topical chronic toxicity studies (0.5 mg / kg / day of Placiousx Pomata) did not determine either mortality or obvious pathologies affecting the individual organs studied macro and microscopically, or alterations to the general state of health.
