Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Methapyrilene is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 4.5 nM) and non-genotoxic carcinogen. Dietary administration of methapyrilene (0.1%) induces liver tumors in rats, with greater than 50% of rats incurring distant metastases. It decreases the acetylation of histone 3 lysine 9 (H3K9) and H3K56, as well as the di- and trimethylation of H3K4 and H4K20, respectively, in rat liver when administered at 40 mg/kg per day for six weeks. Methapyrilene also increases 4-hydroxy nonenal (4-NHE) protein adducts in rat liver. Formulations containing methapyrilene were previously used as sleep aids.

Product Data
Biological target:
Methapyrilene (Thenylpyramine) hydrochloride is an orally active H1-receptor antihistamine.
In vitro activity:
A decrease in the level of TF (transferrin) and an increase in the level of FTL (ferritin, light chain) also occurred in methapyrilene-treated differentiated HepaRG cells, indicating the existence of interspecies and in vitro-in vivo similarities in the disturbance of cellular iron homeostasis upon liver injury. Reference: Toxicol Lett. 2017 Nov 5;281:65-73. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28935588/
In vivo activity:
Administration of high doses of the histamine antagonist methapyrilene to rats causes periportal liver necrosis. Male rats were dosed with methapyrilene for 3 days at 150 mg/kg/day, which was sufficient to induce liver necrosis, or a subtoxic dose of 50 mg/kg/day. Urine was collected over 24 h each day, while blood and liver tissues were obtained at 2 h after the final dose. The resulting data further define the changes that occur in signal transduction and metabolic pathways during methapyrilene hepatotoxicity, revealing modification of expression levels of genes and proteins associated with oxidative stress and a change in energy usage that is reflected in both gene/protein expression patterns and metabolites.
