Description

Proadifen is an inhibitor of drug metabolism and cytochrome P450 enzyme system activity. It stimulated the release of prostacyclin (PGI2) from the rabbit aorta, bovine aorta and human umbilical vein in vitro, but had no effect on cultured smooth muscle from the bovine aortic media. In human platelets, proadifen inhibited prostaglandin and thromboxane production induced by A23187, thrombin, and ADP. Proadifen might thus constitute the prototype of a new class of antiplatelet drugs.

Effects of local anesthetics-related drugs, proadifen, and quinacrine, on glibenclamide-sensitive K+ currents, were investigated using native Xenopus oocytes. Proadifen and quinacrine suppressed cromakalim-induced/glibenclamide-sensitive K+ currents with IC50 values of 9.8 microM and 4.4 microM, respectively. Inhibitors of either cytochrome P450 or phospholipase A2, which are structurally unrelated to local anesthetics, however, did not affect the K+ currents. Similar results were obtained for Y-26763-induced/glibenclamide-sensitive K+ currents. Proadifen and quinacrine block the glibenclamide-sensitive K+ currents by a mechanism irrelevant to the inhibition of cytochrome P450 or phospholipase A2 in oocytes.
