IC50值:阻断心室肌细胞L-型钙通道,IC50值为42 ± 6 μM。
在外周组织形成的17-酮类固醇表雄酮(EPI)是睾酮前体脱氢表雄酮(DHEA)的代谢物。体内循环后,EPI最终从尿中排出。作为一种弱雄激素,经证实EPI可阻止磷酸戊糖途径(PPP),且下调细胞内NADPH水平。最重要的是,EPI关闭心室肌细胞L-型钙通道且限制心肌收缩力[1]。
体外实验:经报道,10到100 mM浓度的EPI剂量依赖性地降低左心室发展压(LVDP)和心肌收缩率。此外,EPI也剂量依赖性地增加离体心脏内的CPP、下调心肌NADPH和亚硝酸盐的水平,以及松弛大鼠主动脉环。通过单心室肌细胞全细胞膜片钳的电生理分析,发现EPI可逆地和剂量依赖性地阻止由Ba2+载流的L-型通道电流,IC50值为42 ± 6 μM。此外,浓度为30 mM 的EPI加速去极化期间IBa的衰减,这表明该药剂作为L-型Ca2+通道拮抗剂,与1,4-二氢吡啶(DHP) Ca2+通道阻滞剂具有相似的特征[1]。
体内实验:使用G-6-PD低的C57L/J小鼠红细胞进行体内测试。连续七天给小鼠隔日口服450或900 mg/kg的检测试剂,包括DHEA、EPI、孕烯醇酮(PREG)及雄烯二酮(ANDR)。最后一次给药三小时后,处死小鼠。血液样本的调查结果表明,G-6-PD活性没有显著变化,这可能是由于红细胞膜上缺少类固醇受体位点引起的[2]。
临床试验:进行双盲临床试验,检测DHEA对自卑、信心不足及社交缺陷的八位精神病患者的作用。研究发现,在两项生产力测试中,DHEA对客观判断行为没有影响,也不具有调节性能[3]。

Reaction Conditions |
100 nM ~ 100 μM epiandrosterone |
Applications |
Electrophysiological analysis of single ventricular myocytes using whole cell clamp showed epiandrosterone to dose-dependently (100 nM ~ 100 μM) and reversibly inhibit L-type channel currents carried by Ba2+ (IBa) (IC50 = 42 ± 6 μM) by as much as 50%. At 30 μM, epiandrosterone shifted the steady-state inactivation curve to more negative potentials, thereby accelerating the decay of IBa during depolarization. These results suggest that epiandrosterone may act as an L-type Ca2+ channel antagonist with properties similar to those of 1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) Ca2+ channel blockers. |
