Product Data
Biological target:
Prilocaine hydrochloride, an amino amide, is a Na, K-ATPase inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Prilocaine induced cell death in Saos-2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner up to the concentration of 10 mM. Marked nuclear condensation and fragmentation of chromatin were observed in the prilocaine-treated cells. DNA ladder formation also was induced by prilocaine treatment. Prilocaine-induced DNA ladder formation was dose-dependent with maximal effect at a concentration of 5 mM and was time-dependent from 12 to 48 hr. DNA ladder formation was also induced by prilocaine treatment in human osteoblastic MG63 cells and mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. Reference: Can J Anaesth. 1999 May;46(5 Pt 1):476-82. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10349929/
In vivo activity:
Prilocaine, at a concentration of 20 µM, protected zebrafish from radiation induced (20 Gy) pericardial edema (PE), microphthalmia and rendered 60 % survival advantage over radiation exposed controls. Prilocaine, in a dose-dependent manner, scavenged, radiation-induced hydroxyl radicals and maximally (43 %) at the highest concentration (1 mM) tried in this study. However, prilocaine exerted a mild superoxide anion scavenging potential (around 5 %) at all the concentrations used within this study. Prilocaine, at 20 µM concentration, significantly increased erythropoiesis, a marker for HSC function, in caudal hematopoietic tissue (CHT) in wild type and anemic zebrafish embryos (1.48 and 0.85 folds respectively) when compared to untreated (1) and phenylhydrazine (PHZ) (0.41 fold) treated control groups respectively.
