Oxatomide is an orally active H1-receptor antagonist (antihistamine)[1-2]. Oxatomide is used in the treatment of allergic diseases such as allergic rhinitis, urticaria, and conjunctivitis[3-4].
In vitro, Oxatomide (1-10µM) was incubated with P-glycoprotein-expressing doxorubicin-resistant human leukemia K562/DXR cells for 45 minutes. Oxatomide significantly reversed the multidrug resistance phenotype in K562 cells and increased the intracellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs[5]. Oxatomide (0.1–30µM) was used to pretreat mouse neuroblastoma N18TG2 cells, J774 macrophage cells, human myeloma RPMI8226 cells, and mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (mBMMC) expressing functional P2X7 receptors for 1 minute, followed by stimulation with ATP (0.5–3mM) or BzATP (10–100µM). Oxatomide significantly inhibited P2X7 receptor-mediated calcium influx, membrane currents, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation, induction of inflammation-related genes, cell death (as measured by LDH release), and mast cell degranulation[6].
In vivo, Oxatomide (1.25–5mg/kg) was orally administered 4 hours prior to challenge to sensitized male Swiss strain mice that had been infected with Trichinella spiralisfor 30 to 40 days. Oxatomide dose-dependently and significantly prevented a lethal anaphylactic reaction induced by intravenous injection of Trichinella larval somatic antigens[7]. Oxatomide (100mg/kg) was administered as a single oral dose 30 minutes before the antigen challenge to passively sensitized WBB6F1-+/+ and B6D2F1 mice using a high dilution (1:128) of anti-bovine serum albumin (BSA) serum. Oxatomide inhibited the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction triggered by the high-dilution antiserum[8].

Oxatomide是一种口服活性的H1受体拮抗剂(抗组胺药)[1-2]。Oxatomide可用于过敏性鼻炎、荨麻疹和结膜炎等过敏性疾病的治疗[3-4]。
在体外,Oxatomide(1-10μM)处理表达P-糖蛋白的阿霉素耐药人白血病细胞K562/DXR 45分钟。Oxatomide可显著逆转K562细胞多药耐药表型,同时增加细胞内化疗药物的积累[5]。Oxatomide(0.1–30μM)预处理表达功能性P2X7受体的小鼠神经母细胞瘤N18TG2细胞、J774巨噬细胞、人骨髓瘤RPMI8226细胞及小鼠骨髓来源肥大细胞(mBMMC)1分钟,随后以ATP(0.5–3mM)或BzATP(10–100μM)刺激。Oxatomide显著抑制P2X7受体介导的钙离子内流、膜电流、丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(MAPK)激活、炎症相关基因诱导、细胞死亡(LDH释放)及肥大细胞脱颗粒[6]。
在体内,Oxatomide(1.25–5mg/kg)在攻击前4小时经口给药,用于处理经旋毛虫(Trichinella spiralis)感染30至40天、处于致敏状态的瑞士品系雄性小鼠。Oxatomide呈剂量依赖性显著防止了由静脉注射旋毛虫幼虫体抗原引发的致死性过敏反应[7]。Oxatomide(100mg/kg)在抗原攻击前30分钟单次给药(口服),用于处理经高稀释度(1:128)抗牛血清白蛋白(BSA)血清被动致敏的WBB6F1-+/+和B6D2F1小鼠。Oxatomide抑制了由高稀释度抗血清引发的被动皮肤过敏反应(PCA)[8]。
