| Targets |
Carbenoxolone sodium targets multiple enzymes and channels. It inhibits 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1). It also acts as a gap junction inhibitor, blocking communication between cells. It modulates cell membrane channels. By inhibiting 11β-HSD1, carbenoxolone affects cortisol metabolism and has anti-inflammatory effects.

| ln Vitro |
Carbenoxolone disodium (6-150 μM; 1 hour pretreatment) is hazardous to VACV-A5L-EGFP infection for 48 hours and inhibits the vaccinia virus (VACV) from replicating itself in gap junctions in HaCaT cells[2]. In hacat cells, carbenoxolone (30 μM; 1 h pre-treatment) increases late protein A27 expression but does not upregulate PP2A expression [2].
In vitro, carbenoxolone sodium inhibits 11β-HSD1. It acts as a gap junction inhibitor and modulates cell membrane channels. These activities have been demonstrated in various in vitro assays. Its anti-ulcerative and anti-inflammatory properties have been shown in cellular and tissue models. |
| ln Vivo |
When compared to saline, carbenoxolone (i.p. ; 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg; 30, 60, and 60 minutes prior to diazepam) exhibits muscle relaxant activity and is superior to the diazepam test in terms of its ability to produce this effect [3]. In mice used in the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) seizure model, carbenoxolone (ip; 100, 200, and 300 mg/kg; 30, 60, and 60 minutes before to pentylenetetrazole) dramatically lengthens sleep duration and decreases latency in a dose-dependent way. ..83.3 mg/kg is the ED50 value (%95 CL:556.29)[3].
In vivo, carbenoxolone sodium has been shown to exhibit anti-ulcerative and anti-inflammatory properties. It is used in neuroscience research as a gap junction inhibitor. Its effects on 11β-HSD1 inhibition can influence cortisol metabolism and inflammation. However, specific details of in vivo efficacy studies are not extensively detailed in the available literature. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme assay for carbenoxolone sodium measures its ability to inhibit 11β-HSD1 activity. These cell-free assays use purified 11β-HSD1 and a substrate. The compound's inhibitory potency is determined by measuring the reduction in enzyme activity. Its effects on gap junctions can be assessed using electrophysiological or dye transfer assays.

| Cell Assay |
Cell Viability Assay[2]
Cell Types: HaCaT cells Tested Concentrations: 6 μM, 12 μM, 30 μM, 60 μM, 150 μM Incubation Duration: Pre-treatment 1 hour Experimental Results: Had no toxicity until 48 hrs (hours) at high dose in virus-infected cells. Western Blot Analysis[2] Cell Types: HaCaT cells Tested Concentrations: 30 μM Incubation Duration: Pre-treatment 1 hour Experimental Results: Presented an obvious upregulation of A27. In vitro cellular assays for carbenoxolone sodium assess its effects on gap junction communication and cell membrane channels. Cells are treated with carbenoxolone, and gap junction-mediated dye transfer or electrical coupling is measured. Its effects on 11β-HSD1 activity can also be assessed in cells. These assays demonstrate the compound's functional activity in a relevant cellular context. |
| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Male balb/c (Bagg ALBino) mouse[3]
Doses: 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg Route of Administration: intraperitoneal (ip)injection; 30, 60 and 60 min before Pentylenetetrazole Experimental Results: Dramatically increased the sleeping time in mice. In vivo animal studies for carbenoxolone sodium have been conducted to assess its anti-ulcerative and anti-inflammatory effects. However, specific details of these studies are not extensively detailed in the available literature. The compound is primarily used as a research tool in neuroscience and virology. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Carbenoxolone sodium is administered orally. It is absorbed and distributed throughout the body. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted in bile and urine. Its pharmacokinetic properties support its use as a therapeutic agent. However, specific parameters such as half-life and bioavailability are not extensively detailed in the available literature.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Carbenoxolone sodium has a well-established safety profile. Common adverse effects include sodium and water retention, hypertension, and hypokalemia due to its inhibition of 11β-HSD1. Its safety has been established through clinical use for ulcer treatment. It is available as a prescription medication in some countries.
