Propafenone (SA-79), a sodium-channel blocker, acts an antiarrhythmic agent. Propafenone also has high affinity for the β receptor (IC₅₀=32 nM). Propafenone blocks the transient outward current (Ito) and the sustained delayed rectifier K current (Isus) with IC₅₀ values of 4.9 μm and 8.6 μm, respectively. Propafenone suppresses esophageal cancer proliferation through inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and induce apoptosis.

In Vitro

Propafenone (5-25 μM) inhibits esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell proliferation^[3].
Propafenone causes mitochondrial dysfunction by a decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced expression of Bcl-xL and Bcl-2^[3].
Propafenone (10 and 20 μm) treatment significantly down regulates the expression levels of the anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-xL and Bcl-2 in ESCC cells. Propafenone also reduces expression of p-ERK^[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Propafenone (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection every other day) markedly suppresses the tumor burden with a decrease of 69.2%^[3].
Propafenone also significantly inhibits tumor cell proliferation (mean index decreased from 56.3±6.7% in the DMSO-treated group to 20.7±5.1% in the 10 mg/kg propafenone-treated group and 11.3±4.0% in the 20 mg/kg propafenone-treated group)^[3].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
