Biological Activity

[Description]:

Cimetidine (SKF-92334) hydrochloride is an orally active and inverse histamine H2 receptor antagonist with a Ki of 0.6 μM. Cimetidine hydrochloride is a gastric acid reducer, and can be used for duodenal and gastric ulcers research. Cimetidine hydrochloride has anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activity[1][2][5].

[In Vitro]

Cimetidine (SKF-92334) hydrochloride, a partial agonist for H2R, has a pharmacological profile different from ranitidine and famotidine, possibly contributing to its antitumor activity on gastrointestinal cancers [1]. Cimetidine hydrochloride has no effect on the uptake and cytotoxicity of cisplatin in ovarian cancer cells with high OCT2 mRNA levels (IGROV-1 cells)[3]. Cimetidine hydrochloride shows no effect on proliferation, survival, migration and invasion of 3LL cells. Cimetidine hydrochloride reverses MDSC-mediated T-cell suppression, and improves IFN-γ production[4]. Cimetidine-mediated down-regulation of NCAM involved suppression of the nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, a transcriptional activator of NCAM gene expression[5].

[In Vivo]

Cimetidine (SKF-92334) hydrochloride reduces CD11b(+)Gr-1(+) myeloid derived-suppressive cell (MDSC) accumulation in spleen, blood and tumor tissue of tumor-bearing mice[4]. Cimetidine hydrochloride exerts a beneficial effect on periodontal disease in rats, decreasing the RANKL/OPG ratio in gingival connective tissue and reducing alveolar bone resorption[6].
