D-Tetrandrine Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Recently it has been discovered that pronounced drug-dependence and related toxic effects occur in both dogs and rhesus monkeys with this alkaloid on intravenous injection with a dose of 10-150 mg/kg. When rapidly injected, the acute hypotensive effect is very marked and fatal at once. Following drug administration at toxic levels it is found that severe local tissue reaction heptaotoxicity and lymphoid necrosis occurs. At the highest dosage level there is a very definite nephrotoxicity in monkeys and some indications of this in dogs. The evidence available suggests that monkeys are less sensitive to hepatotoxicity with this drug than dogs. |
Description | Tetrandrine is a bis-benzylisoquinoline alkaloid that has been found in R. stephania roots and has diverse biological activities. It induces autophagy in HeLa, MCF-7, and human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cells when used at a concentration of 5 μM, an effect that can be reversed by the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine . Tetrandrine inhibits PAF-, thrombin-, collagen-, ADP-, or epinephrine-induced aggregation of isolated human platelets. Priming of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with tetrandrine (5 and 10 μM) reduces TNF-α secretion by RAW 264.7 cells in co-culture. Ear skin transplantation of tetrandrine-primed MSCs decreases ear levels of TNF-α in a mouse model of ear skin inflammation. Tetrandrine (1 mg/kg) increases soleus muscle levels of glucose transporter 4 (Glut4) and decreases plasma glucose levels in a rat model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin . |

History | Recent studies have shown that tetrandrine has a variety of biological effects and very good applicational prospects in the treatment of fibrosis and portal vein and pulmonary hypertension, the regulation of immunologic function, as well as the prevention and treatment of tumor. As early as 1988, tetrandrine has been found having the effect on blocking the Ca2 + channel and was quickly applied into the pharmacological research in the field of cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Results from a large number of studies have shown that tetrandrine has good effects on antihypertension, arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia, inflammation, and so on. As a traditional Chinese calcium antagonist, tetrandrine has a broad prospects in clinical applications of cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases.In the early 1990s, the application of tetrandrine was extended. During that time, researchers conducted many studies about its protective effects on liver, lung, and mitochondria, which opened a new field for the treatment of liver disease. In 2002, it was found that tetrandrine can inhibit the synthesis of DNA and RNA in tumor cells, which provided a new method for the treatment of cancer. At present, the prevention and treatment effects of hypertension, fibrosis, digestive diseases, tumors, rheumatoid arthritis, and other autoimmune diseases of tetrandrine have been confirmed, as well as the function of reducing portal hypertension and pulmonary hypertension, while its other pharmacological effects are to be explored in further study. |
Uses | Tetrandrine is a lipopolysaccharide-induced microglial suppressor, effectively reducing the production of bacterial inflammatory mediators. Anti-inflammatory, anti-nociceptive. Tetrandrine is used in China to treat high blood pressure. This drug blocked the TPC2 calcium channel required for the Ebola infection process (Robert A. Davey et al., Science 2015, DOI: 10.1126/science.1258758). |
Uses | analgesic, antineoplastic, antihypertensive, lymphotoxin |
Indications | This product is included in national standards for chemical drugs (Volume 14), British Pharmacopoeia (2017), and European Pharmacopoeia (9.0th ed.). Tetrandrine is used for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension and hypertensive crisis, rheumatism, silicosis, etc. |
Definition | ChEBI: (+)-Tetrandrine is a member of isoquinolines and a bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid. |
Pharmacology | Tetrandrine has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergic effects and has a wide range of usage on the cardiovascular system owing to its antihypertensive, anti-myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury and antiarrhythmic effects. It can inhibit the platelet aggregation induced by ADP, collagen, and arachidonic acid in?vitro and can also restrain the platelet adhesion and thrombosis (in rabbits). Tetrandrine also has anticancer effects. Studies have shown that tetrandrine has a strong inhibitory effect on the DNA and RNA synthesis in L7712 and S180 (cancer cells), which can significantly suppress the growth of Wacker sarcoma W256. Besides that, tetrandrine has the ability to relax the striated muscle, and its methyl iodide or methyl bromide derivatives can also affect the muscles. Notably, tetrandrine can prevent silicosis and has a preferable outcome on the clinical treatment of such disease. In addition, tetrandrine also owns antipyretic, diuretic, and antiallergic shock effects. |
Clinical Use | Tetrandrine is used for the treatment of hypertension, angina, termination of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, pulmonary fibrosis, and other diseases in clinical application, and it also has strong antitumor effects. Tetrandrine was also approved for lowering blood glucose and free radical damage; its treatment effect on silicosis is significant and superior to conventional immunosuppressive and cytotoxic drugs. |

pharmacological action
This product has a significant antihypertensive effect on both normal and hypertensive animals. The antihypertensive effect is mainly due to the dilation of resistance vessels, which reduces peripheral resistance. The initial hypotension may be related to its inhibition of left ventricular systolic function. Its principle of action is also caused by calcium antagonism, which can directly relax vascular smooth muscle. It has negative inotropic effects, negative frequency, and negative conduction effects on the heart, reduces oxygen consumption, prolongs myocardial refractory period and atrioventricular conduction, and is also related to its calcium antagonistic effect [4].
Anti allergic effect
Bian Rulian and others have shown through animal experiments that Hanfangjijia can counteract the action and release of allergic mediators. It exhibits inhibitory effects on guinea pig asthma induced by histamine and acetylcholine, as well as spasmodic contraction of isolated ileum smooth muscle. Its effect is dose-dependent, and both 32 and 48ug/ml of medication have significant inhibitory effects on the increase of 5-hydroxytryptamine in rat skin vascular permeability. In addition, it also has a significant inhibitory effect on the release of histamine from rat peritoneal cells induced by dextran. Based on the above results, it is believed that Hanfangjijia is both an allergy mediator antagonist and an allergy mediator blocker, with reliable antagonistic and therapeutic effects on allergic reactions [5].
The preventive and therapeutic effects on liver fibrosis
Tet can significantly reduce serum type III procollagen, serum and liver HA, and decrease collagen deposition in the liver, indicating that Tet can be used to treat liver fibrosis in chronic liver disease.
The effect on hypoxic pulmonary hypertension
In dogs with hypoxic pulmonary hypertension, Tet can significantly reduce elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance, and improve CO and oxygen transport capacity, while having no significant effect on systemic circulation and blood gas levels. Tet mainly inhibits the proliferation of collagen fibers in pulmonary arterioles and suppresses the thickening and muscle formation of pulmonary blood vessels caused by hypoxia, significantly reducing the narrowing of pulmonary arterioles and lowering pulmonary artery pressure, thereby partially inhibiting the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
The therapeutic effect on silicosis
On the basis of preparing Pro α 1 (I) and Pro α 1 (III) collagen cDNA probes, spot and in situ molecular hybridization techniques were used to observe the effect of Tet on mRNA expression of type I and III collagen genes in silicosis tissues. It is believed that the accumulation of collagen in silicosis tissue is caused by the increased expression of collagen genes induced by quartz dust. TET can directly or indirectly inhibit the transcription of collagen genes, thereby reducing the synthesis of collagen in the diseased tissue.
The therapeutic effect on hypertension
Tet has a significant antihypertensive effect and can significantly reduce the levels of lipid peroxides (LPO) and thromboxane (TXB2) in the blood of hypertensive patients, significantly increase the levels of SOD and prostacyclin (6-keto-PGF1 α), and reduce the TXB2/6-keto-PGF1 α ratio. The antihypertensive mechanism of Hanfangjijia is caused by blocking voltage dependent calcium channels in the myocardium and vascular smooth muscle, as well as increasing the level of 6-keto-PGF1 α.
The therapeutic effect on angina pectoris
Tet has a significant effect on reducing myocardial oxygen consumption index, with no significant difference compared to n . Therefore, Tet is an effective drug for treating angina pectoris, preventing myocardial infarction, and reducing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
The therapeutic effect on ophthalmic diseases
(1) The therapeutic effect of Tet on experimental uveitis: Tet inhibits experimental uveitis, which is not only related to its anti-inflammatory effect, but also to its inhibition of humoral and cellular immune responses.
(2) The effect on hyperpigmentation membrane inflammation: The mechanism of Tet's anti hyperpigmentation membrane inflammation may be related to its ability to reduce intracellular levels.
(3) The effect of Tet on retinoblastoma: At low doses (0 At a concentration of 1 μ g/mL, although there was no direct inhibitory effect on Rb44 cells, it significantly increased the killing effect of radiation on Rb44 cells. As the drug concentration increases, the cell killing rate increases, and there is no significant difference in administration before and after radiation. Tet mainly increases the efficacy of radiotherapy by inhibiting the repair of potentially lethal cell damage.
Enhance the efficacy of anticancer drugs
MTT assay was used to detect the toxic effects of d (DNR) and homosophocarpine (HHT) on leukemia cells, and the effect of Tet on the cytotoxicity of the two chemotherapy drugs was observed. As a result, Tet can significantly enhance the toxic effects of DNR and HHT on drug-resistant cells (K562/AO2, K562/HHT). [3]
Other functions
Someone observed the effect of Hanfangjijia on myocardial infarction through animal experiments and found that this drug can reduce the size of myocardial infarction. The CPK enzyme released by the myocardium was lower than that in the control group. There are also reports that this drug has a good muscle relaxation effect, and its mechanism may be related to blocking the motor nerve source - the muscle spindle system. In addition, Hanfangjijia has good therapeutic effects on leukemia, neuropathic pain, arrhythmia and other diseases.
