Nifenalol is the beta-receptor antagonist. It has optical isomers. The racemic mixture and the levo-isomer are active in antagonizing beta-receptors, but the dextro-isomer is inactive. The levo-isomer seems to be about twice as active in blocking beta-receptors as the racemate. Nifenalol is virtually devoid of local anesthetic properties in contrast to procaine, propranolol, and butidrine. Nifenalol exacerbated the fighting behavior in male mice by foot-shock. Nifenalol has been studied in patients with coronary artery disease. It afforded the coronary patient good protection against angina and ischemic changes in the EKG. It was further noted that nifenalol had no antiarrhythmic action and that it was devoid of evident side effects. Nifenalol possessed weak action against tremorine and oxotremorine induced tremor.

CHEMICAL (ABSOLUTE)

7β-hydroxycholesteryl-3-oleate has been shown to inhibit astrogliosis and intracranial glioblastoma growth. Local administration of 7β-hydroxycholesteryl-3-oleate inhibits growth of experimental rat C6 glioblastoma. These data suggest that 7β-hydroxycholesteryl-3-oleate might be useful for local glioblastoma chemotherapy. 7β-hydroxycholesteryl-3-oleate is a potent inhibitor of the endogenous cholesterol biosynthesis in brain showing a correlation between cholesterogenesis and reactive astrocyte proliferation. 7β-hydroxycholesteryl-3-oleate can reduce the astrocytic reaction following spinal cord injury, promoting the serotonergic reinnervation of a denervated territory. On 17 December 2010, orphan designation (EU/3/10/816) was granted by the European Commission to Intsel Chimos SA, France, for 7-beta-hydroxy cholesteryl-3-beta-oleate for the treatment of glioma. The substance is going to be injected directly into the brain tumour contained within liposomes, which are expected to carry the medicine into the glioma cells.
