Description of Mibefradil

Mibefradil is a calcium channel antagonist which can block both T-type and L-type calcium channels and the IC50 of Mibefradil for T-type and L-type calcium current are 0.7μM and 2μM, respectively [1, 2]. Mibefradil is clinically used to treat hypertension, chronic stable angina pectoris [1] and ovarian, pancreas, glioblastoma multiforme tumors [3].

Mibefradil (100μM) significantly inhibited thapsigargin-induced endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release in EA.hy926 cells and HK-2 cells; Mibefradil (100μM; 24h) significantly inhibited the proliferation of HK-2 and EA.hy926 cells [4]. Mibefradil (5μM; 30h) decreased myoblast fusion [2]. Mibefradil (0~10μM; 48h) suppressed the cell viability of both MOLT-4 and Jurkat in a dose-dependent manner; Mibefradil (0, 5,10μM; 48h) enhanced the percentage of MOLT-4 cells in the G0/G1 and sub-G1 phase and reduced that in the S phase [3].

Mibefradil (15mg/kg; 3d; b.i.d.; i.p.) caused a profound reduction of fasting blood glucose in male db/db mice[5]. Mibefradil (20, 40mg/kg; i.p.) decreased the productions of TNF-α and IL-6 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of male BALB/c mice stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) [6]. Mibefradil (20mg/kg; 6months; p.o.) reduced the glomerulosclerosis and tubulointerstitial injury of Sprague-Dawley rats which were induced diabetes by strepozotocin [7].

Protocol of Mibefradil

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

MOLT-4 cells

Preparation Method

MOLT-4 cells were treated with 10μΜ Mibefradil for various time-points from 0 to 24h. Membranes were probed with a phosphospecific Ab to detect activated ERK1/2.

Reaction Conditions

10μM; 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24h

Applications

Mibefradil decreased phosphorylated ERK1/2.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Male BALB/c mice

Preparation Method

The mice were induced acute lung injury by exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Mibefradil was injected 30min before LPS exposure, and the mice were sacrificed 6h after end of LPS exposure. The bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of mice was collected to measure the levels of inflammatory cytokines.

Dosage form

20, 40mg/kg; i.g.

Applications

Mibefradil decreased the productions of TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF.
