  3. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride

Chlorpromazine hydrochloride is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-transparent antipsychotic agent that effectively antagonises D2 dopamine receptors and 5-HT2A, which is widely used in schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride exerts anti-cancer activity through a variety of pathways, including anti-proliferation, induction of autophagy and cycle arrest (G2-M phase), inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase (CcO), inhibition of tumour growth and metastasis, and inhibition of tumour immune escape. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride also blocks hNav1.7 channels (IC50=25.9 μM; concentration-dependent) and HERG potassium channels (IC50=21.6 μM), which has potential for analgesic and cardiac arrhythmic studies. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride also can inhibit clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

    Chlorpromazine (CPZ) (10 µM; 30 min) remarkably decreases the cellular internalization of FITC-P-LPK in HCT116 cells. Chlorpromazine can inhibit clathrin-mediated endocytosis. The fluorescence intensity is observed by confocal microscopy and detected using a multi-well plate reader.

    Description

    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-transparent antipsychotic agent that effectively antagonises D2 dopamine receptors and 5-HT2A, which is widely used in schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride exerts anti-cancer activity through a variety of pathways, including anti-proliferation, induction of autophagy and cycle arrest (G2-M phase), inhibition of cytochrome c oxidase (CcO), inhibition of tumour growth and metastasis, and inhibition of tumour immune escape. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride also blocks hNav1.7 channels (IC50=25.9 μM; concentration-dependent) and HERG potassium channels (IC50=21.6 μM), which has potential for analgesic and cardiac arrhythmic studies. Chlorpromazine hydrochloride also can inhibit clathrin-mediated endocytosis[1][2][3][4][5].

    IC50 & Target

    D2 dopamine receptors; 5-HT2A[1][6].

    In Vitro

    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (0, 10, 20, 40 μM; 0, 24, 48 h) inhibits growth of U-87MG glioma cells in a dose- and time- dependent manner[2].
    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (20 μM; 0, 12, 24, 48 h) decreases the levels of cyclin A and cyclin B1 in U-87MG glioma cells, 12 h later[2].
    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (20 μM) causes inhibition of cell cycle progression[2].
    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (10 μM; 1 h) significantly suppresses the sEV internalization and dramatically reduces MDSCs in sEV-treated bone marrow cells (MDSCs can significantly suppress the immune cell response, causing immunosuppression in cancer cells)[3].
    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride (3, 10, 20, 40, 60 μM) blocks the hNav1.7 current in a concentration-dependent manner[4].
    Chlorpromazine hydrochloride blocks HERG potassium channels with an IC50 value of 21.6 μM and a Hill coefficient of 1.11[5].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
