Clemizole
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Clemizole is an orally active, blood-brain barrier permeable TRPC5 inhibitor, with an IC50 value of 1.05-1.34 μM against mouse TRPC5. Clemizole blocks TRPC1:TRPC5, TRPC3, TRPC4, TRPC6, TRPC7, hERG, hKCNQ1/hKCNE1 and hKv1.5 channels, and activates TRPA1; it modulates 5HT-2B and HTR2A receptors; it inhibits HCV RNA replication, CrtN enzymatic activity, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, cell apoptosis and bacterial virulence; it maintains blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity; it enhances DNA repair capacity; it improves cell viability; and it alters cardiac electrophysiological properties. Clemizole can be used in the research of Dravet syndrome, hepatitis C virus infection, Staphylococcus aureus skin infection, Cisplatin (HY-17394)-induced nephrotoxicity, STXBP1-related diseases, traumatic brain injury and xeroderma pigmentosum type C.

In Vitro
Clemizole exhibits strong, synergistic anti-HCV activity in Huh 7.5 cells when combined with Boceprevir (HY-10237), with a synergy volume of 230 μM2%, and does not induce cellular toxicity at tested concentrations[9].
Clemizole (as Clemizole Hydrochloride) (1-10 μM; 24 h) significantly increases the viability of XP-C patient-derived fibroblasts exposed to UVB irradiation, with a dose-dependent protective effect that enhances photo-resistance compared to DMSO-treated cells[11].
Clemizole (as Clemizole Hydrochloride) (5 μM; 24 h) significantly promotes repair of UVB-induced 6-4PP DNA lesions in XP-C patient-derived fibroblasts[11].
Clemizole (as Clemizole Hydrochloride) (0.1-10 μM; 24 h) mediates enhanced UVB photo-resistance in XP-C patient-derived fibroblasts through both pre- and post-UVB irradiation treatment, with the combined regimen yielding the highest bioactivity[11].
Clemizole (as Clemizole Hydrochloride) (10 μM; 2-4 h) does not affect DNA replication or cell proliferation in XP-C patient-derived fibroblasts exposed to UVB irradiation[11].
Clemizole (as Clemizole Hydrochloride) (10 μM; 24 h) does not reduce apoptosis or necrosis to mediate its protective effect in XP-C patient-derived fibroblasts exposed to UVB irradiation[11].
