HIDE SMILES / InChI
Cicletanine is a diuretic, developed by Ipsen for the treatment of hypertension. The drug was marketed in France by Recordati under the name Tenstaten. The mechanism(s) by which cicletanine exerts its biological effects has not been definitely established. The salidiuretic activity appears to be the result of an action of the sulfoconjugated metabolite of cicletanine, which inhibits the apical Na+-dependent Cl-/HCO3- anion exchanger in the distal convoluted tubule. The mechanism of the vasodilating effect of cicletanine may include stimulation of vascular prostaglandin synthesis, inhibition of the low Km cyclic GMP phosphodiesterases, and blockade of Ca2+ channels either directly or indirectly. The drug has also been shown to interact with other proteins, including alpha-adrenergic, vascular histamine, and muscarinic receptors.

Originator

Curator's Comment: In october 2005 Ipsen and Recordati announced the signature of an agreement by which Ipsen grants to Recordati the exclusive marketing and selling rights in France of Tenstaten (cicletanine).

Sample Use Guides

The treatment is initiated with 50 mg/day, but the effective dosage is usually 100 mg/day.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
The effect of cicletanine on active tension was investigated in rat thoracic aortas. At concentrations from 3*10(-5) M to 3*10(-4) M the drug caused a concentration-related relaxation of noradrenaline, serotonin and prostaglandin F2alpha-induced contractions.
