Bioactivity | Mizolastine is an orally active, high affinity and specific peripheral histamine H1 receptor antagonist (second generation antihistamine). Mizolastine effectively inhibits mRNA expression of VEGF165, VEGF120, TNF-α and KC. Mizolastine can be used in studies of allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticarial[1][2][3]. | ||||||||||||
Invitro | Mizolastine (1-10000 nM; 0.5-6 h) shows inhibitory effects on VEGF, KC and TNF-α release in mast cells[1].Mizolastine (0.1 µM; 4 h) significantly reduces VEGF165, VEGF120, TNF-α and KC mRNA expression in mast cells[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: | ||||||||||||
In Vivo | Mizolastine (0.3 mg/kg; p.o.; single daily for 7 days) inhibits production of 5-LOX AA (arachidonic acid) metabolite leukotriene B4 (LTB4), and suppresses expression of 5-LOX, cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2), 5-LOX-activating protein, and LTB4 receptor mRNA in the AA-induced inflammation model[2].
