Biological Activity
| Description | Clemizole, a first-generation histamine receptor (H1) antagonist, is a potent inhibitor of behavioural and electrographic seizure activity. It has a potential therapeutic effect on hepatitis C infection and also potently inhibits TRPC5 ion channels. | ||

| Targets |
|
||
| In vitro | Clemizole efficiently blocks TRPC5 currents and Ca2+ entry in the low micromolar range (IC50 = 1.0-1.3 μM), as determined by fluorometric [Ca2+]I measurements and patch clamp recordings. Based on fluorometric [Ca2+]i measurements, clemizole exhibits a 6-fold selectivity for TRPC5 over TRPC4β (IC50 = 6.4 μM), the closest structural relative of TRPC5 and an almost 10-fold selectivity over TRPC3 (IC50 = 9.1 μM) and TRPC6 (IC50 = 11.3 μM). TRPM3 and M8 as well as TRPV1, V2, V3 and V4 channels are only weakly affected by markedly higher clemizole concentrations. Clemizole is not only effective in blocking heterologously expressed TRPC5 homomers but also TRPC1:TRPC5 heteromers as well as native TRPC5-like currents in the U-87 glioblastoma cell line[3]. |
||
| In vivo | Clemizole is rapidly metabolized in mice with a plasma half-life of <10 min (compared to 3.4 h in humans), limiting its evaluation in murine models[2]. |
