| ln Vitro |
Glioma cell proliferation is only impacted by high concentrations of doxycycline hydrochloride (0.01–10 µg/mL, 4 d) [2]. When administered to SVG cells at doses of 1 µg/mL and above, doxycycline hydrochloride (0.01–10 µg/mL, 24 hours) can decrease the amount of MT-CO1 protein [2]. Human cell line growth is inhibited by doxycycline hydrochloride (100 ng/mL, 1 µg/mL; 24 hours) [4]. Breast cancer cells' ability to proliferate is inhibited by doxycycline hydrochloride (0-250 μM, 72 hours) [5].
- Mitochondrial Function Impairment: - Reference [2]: In human glioma cell lines (U87, U251), doxycycline (0.01–10 μg/mL) dose-dependently reduced mitochondrial membrane potential (JC-1 assay) and ATP production (luciferase-based assay). At 1 μg/mL, ATP levels decreased by 40% compared to vehicle control. Western blot analysis showed reduced expression of mitochondrial complex I subunit MT-CO1 by 30% at 1 μg/mL. - Metabolic and Proliferation Alterations: - Reference [4]: In MCF-7 breast cancer cells, doxycycline (1–100 μM) decreased glucose uptake (2-NBDG assay) by 25–60% and lactate production (enzymatic assay) by 30–50% after 72 hours. MTT assay revealed dose-dependent inhibition of cell viability with an IC50 of 25 μM. - Cancer Stem Cell Inhibition: - Reference [5]: In MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, doxycycline (10–50 μM) reduced sphere formation efficiency (clonogenic assay) by 40–60% and downregulated stemness markers (ALDH1, CD44/CD24) by 50–70% (flow cytometry). Western blot showed decreased phosphorylation of AKT (40%) and β-catenin (35%) at 25 μM. |
| ln Vivo |
- Aortic Lesion Amelioration in vEDS Mice:
- Reference [3]: Oral administration of doxycycline (20 mg/kg/day) to vEDS mice for 4 weeks reduced aortic aneurysm formation by 50% (histological analysis) and decreased MMP-9 activity (zymography) by 35% in aortic tissues. Serum elastin degradation products (ELISA) were reduced by 40%.
- GDNF Expression Regulation: - Reference [6]: In transgenic mice with a doxycycline-responsive GDNF promoter, intraperitoneal doxycycline (2 mg/kg/day) for 14 days increased striatal GDNF levels (ELISA) by 2.5-fold compared to vehicle. Behavioral tests showed improved motor coordination in rotarod assay. In HT mice who have not received treatment, doxycycline hydrochloride (oral gavage; 200 or 800 mg/kg; once daily; 3 months) decreases MMP-9 activity in a dose-dependent way [3]. |
| Enzyme Assay |
- MMP Activity Zymography:
- Reference [3]: Aortic tissue lysates from vEDS mice treated with doxycycline (20 mg/kg/day) were subjected to gelatin zymography. Samples were electrophoresed on 10% SDS-PAGE gels containing 1 mg/mL gelatin. After renaturation, gels were incubated at 37°C for 24 hours in developing buffer. Clear bands indicating MMP-2/-9 activity were quantified by densitometry, showing a 35% reduction in MMP-9 activity in treated mice.

Cell viability was assessed by MTT assay, showing a 50% reduction in hypoxia-induced cell death at 1 μg/mL. Annexin V/PI staining (flow cytometry) revealed a 30% decrease in apoptotic cells at 1 μg/mL. - Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) Inhibition: - Reference [5]: In MCF-7 cells, doxycycline (25 μM) reduced vimentin expression (immunofluorescence) by 50% and increased E-cadherin expression by 40%. Transwell migration assay showed a 60% decrease in migratory cells after 24-hour treatment. |

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Overview of Medication Use During Lactation Some reviews suggest that tetracyclines are contraindicated during lactation because they can cause staining of infant tooth enamel or deposition in bone. However, a careful review of existing literature indicates that short-term use of doxycycline during lactation is unlikely to cause harm because the drug concentration in breast milk is low, and the infant's absorption of the drug is inhibited by calcium in breast milk. Currently, it is considered acceptable for children under 8 years of age to use doxycycline for no more than 21 days. As a theoretical precaution, treatment exceeding 21 days or repeated treatments during lactation should be avoided. Closely monitor the infant for rashes and potential effects on the gut microbiota, such as diarrhea or candidiasis (thrush, diaper rash). ◉ Effects on Breastfed Infants No relevant published information was found as of the revision date. ◉ Effects on Breastfeeding and Breast Milk No relevant published information was found as of the revision date. |

| Additional Infomation |
Mechanism of action: - References [2][5]: Doxycycline inhibits mitochondrial electron transport chain complex I, reduces glycolytic flux, and blocks the AKT/β-catenin signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting cancer stem cell characteristics. - Clinical significance: - References [8]: Systematic reviews have shown that doxycycline (100 mg, twice daily for 7 days) can be used as an alternative to Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy, achieving eradication rates of 76%–97% when used in combination with other antibiotics. - Gene regulation: - References [6][7]: The doxycycline-regulated Tet-on system reversibly induces GDNF expression in transgenic mice and is dose-dependently regulated in the nigrostriatal pathway (0.1–2 mg/kg). Doxycycline is a prescription antimicrobial drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of certain infections. In addition, doxycycline has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the prevention of malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum.
Doxycycline is FDA-approved for the treatment of many infections that may be opportunistic infections (OIs) associated with HIV. Doxycycline hydrochloride is the hydrochloride form of doxycycline, a synthetic broad-spectrum tetracycline antibiotic with antibacterial activity. Doxycycline hydrochloride reversibly binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit and may also bind to the 50S ribosomal subunit, thereby blocking the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex. This leads to inhibition of protein synthesis. In addition, the drug also exhibits inhibitory effects on collagenase activity. A synthetic tetracycline derivative with similar antibacterial activity.
