Terfenadine
Terfenadine is a histamine H1-receptor antagonist, which blocks HERG and KATP (KIR6) channels. (In Vitro) :Terfenadine ((±) -Terfenadine) (4-20 μM; 24 hours) induces dose and time-dependent apoptosis on A375 melanoma cells. The IC50 after 24 h of TEF treatment in complete medium was 10.4 μM for A375 cells, 9.9 μM for Hs294T cells and 9.6 for HT144 cells.Terfenadine (2-10 μM; 8 hours) induces dose-dependent cytotoxicity.Terfenadine (10 μM; 8 hours) causes a massive vacuolization of the cytoplasm and autophagic vacuoles of both double and multiple membranes and at various stages. Terfenadine induces autophagy by ROS-dependent and -independent mechanisms. (In Vivo) :Terfenadine (p.o.; 40 mg/kg; for 16 days) produces a significant inhibition of tumour growth rate and enhances the anti-cancer effect of EPI in chemo-resistant NSCLC xenograft models.
