Cardiotoxicity of calmidazolium chloride is attributed to calcium aggravation, oxidative and nitrosative stress, and apoptosis.[Pubmed:19497364]
Free Radic Biol Med. 2009 Sep 15;47(6):699-709.
The intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca](i)) regulates cell viability and contractility in myocardial cells. Elevation of the [Ca](i) level occurs by entry of calcium ions (Ca(2+)) through voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels in the plasma membrane and release of Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Calmidazolium chloride (CMZ), a subgroup II calmodulin antagonist, blocks L-type calcium channels as well as voltage-dependent Na(+) and K(+) channel currents. This study elaborates on the events that contribute to the cytotoxic effects of CMZ on the heart. We hypothesized that apoptotic cell death occurs in the cardiac cells through calcium accumulation, production of reactive oxygen species, and the cytochrome c-mediated PARP activation pathway. CMZ significantly increased the production of superoxide (O(2)(*-)) and nitric oxide (NO) as detected by FACS and confocal microscopy. CMZ induced mitochondrial damage by increasing the levels of intracellular calcium, lowering the mitochondrial membrane potential, and thereby inducing cytochrome c release. Apoptotic cell death was observed in H9c2 cells exposed to 25 microM CMZ for 24 h. This is the first report that elaborates on the mechanism of CMZ-induced cardiotoxicity. CMZ causes apoptosis by decreasing mitochondrial activity and contractility indices and increasing oxidative and nitrosative stress, ultimately leading to cell death via an intrinsic apoptotic pathway.
Calmidazolium chloride inhibits growth of murine embryonal carcinoma cells, a model of cancer stem-like cells.[Pubmed:27247146]
Toxicol In Vitro. 2016 Sep;35:86-92.
Calmidazolium chloride (CMZ) is widely used as a calmodulin (CaM) antagonist, but is also known to induce apoptosis in certain cancer cell lines. However, in spite of the importance of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in cancer therapy, the effects of CMZ on CSCs are not yet well understood. We investigated the effects of CMZ on the F9 embryonal carcinoma cell (ECC) line as a surrogate model of CSCs. To avoid bias due to culture conditions, F9 ECCs and E14 embryonic stem cells (ESCs) were grown in the same culture medium. Results obtained using a cell-counting kit showed that CMZ significantly inhibited growth in F9 ECCs compared with growth in E14 ESCs. CMZ also induced apoptosis of F9 ECCs, but not of E14 ESCs, which was associated with caspase-3 activation and an increased fraction of the sub-G1 cell population. In addition, our data revealed that the expression of stemness-related genes including c-Myc was selectively down regulated in CMZ-treated F9 ECCs. Our results suggest that CMZ can inhibit the growth of ECCs by inducing apoptosis and down regulating stemness-related genes, without causing any harm to normal stem cells. These findings indicate a potential application of CMZ in the development of anti-CSC therapeutics.
Injections of calmidazolium chloride into the ipsilateral medial vestibular nucleus or fourth ventricle reduce spontaneous ocular nystagmus following unilateral labyrinthectomy in guinea pigs.[Pubmed:8491266]
Exp Brain Res. 1993;93(2):271-8.
The effects of three injections (0.5-4.5 h post-operation) of 1-[bis-(p-chlorophenyl)methyl]-3-[2,4-dichloro-beta-(2,4- dichlorobenzyloxy)phenethyl]-imidazolium chloride (Calmidazolium chloride, R24571), into the ipsilateral medial vestibular nucleus or fourth ventricle, on vestibular compensation for unilateral labyrinthectomy was studied in guinea pigs. R24571, a calmodulin antagonist and inhibitor of several Ca(2+)-dependent enzymes, caused a significant reduction in the average frequency of spontaneous ocular nystagmus (spontaneous nystagmus) during the first 53 h following unilateral labyrinthectomy (n = 5), compared with vehicle-injected animals (n = 5). Although a statistical analysis was not performed on the yaw head tilt and roll head tilt data because of the large variability between animals over the 53-h period of compensation, most R24571-treated animals had less yaw head tilt (4/4 animals) and roll head tilt (4/5 animals) at 9-11 h post-labyrinthectomy than the average values for the vehicle groups at that time. The decrease in the frequency of spontaneous nystagmus following R24571 treatment was not associated with general ataxia or sedation. These results are consistent with recent biochemical studies in suggesting that intracellular pathways associated with Ca2+ may be involved in the neuronal mechanisms of vestibular compensation following unilateral labyrinthectomy.
Time-dependent inhibition of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate-5-phosphatase by calmidazolium chloride in rat GH3 cells.[Pubmed:1336971]
Cell Signal. 1992 Nov;4(6):723-5.
The calmodulin inhibitor Calmidazolium chloride inhibited the activity of soluble and particulate Ins(1,4,5)P3-5-phosphatase from GH3 cells, with an IC50 value of approximately 100 microM following a 10-min preincubation with the enzyme. The inhibition was time-dependent and could not be reversed by washing of the particulate fraction. It is concluded that although the inhibitory effect of Calmidazolium chloride cannot be related per se to inhibition of calmodulin function, effects of this compound unrelated to actions upon calmodulin function may be found when concentrations that are only moderately supramaximal are used.
Calmidazolium and arachidonate activate a calcium entry pathway that is distinct from store-operated calcium influx in HeLa cells.[Pubmed:15130089]
Biochem J. 2004 Aug 1;381(Pt 3):929-39.
Agonists that deplete intracellular Ca2+ stores also activate Ca2+ entry, although the mechanism by which store release and Ca2+ influx are linked is unclear. A potential mechanism involves 'store-operated channels' that respond to depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ pool. Although SOCE (store-operated Ca2+ entry) has been considered to be the principal route for Ca2+ entry during hormonal stimulation of non-electrically excitable cells, recent evidence has suggested that alternative pathways activated by metabolites such as arachidonic acid are responsible for physiological Ca2+ influx. It is not clear whether such messenger-activated pathways exist in all cells, whether they are truly distinct from SOCE and which metabolites are involved. In the present study, we demonstrate that HeLa cells express two pharmacologically and mechanistically distinct Ca2+ entry pathways. One is the ubiquitous SOCE route and the other is an arachidonate-sensitive non-SOCE. We show that both these Ca2+ entry pathways can provide long-lasting Ca2+ elevations, but that the channels are not the same, based on their differential sensitivity to 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate, LOE-908 [(R,S)-(3,4-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxy-isochinolin-1-yl)-2-phenyl-N,N-di[2-(2,3,4-trim ethoxyphenyl)ethyl]acetamid mesylate] and gadolinium. In addition, non-SOCE and not SOCE was permeable to strontium. Furthermore, unlike SOCE, the non-SOCE pathway did not require store depletion and was not sensitive to displacement of the endoplasmic reticulum from the plasma membrane using jasplakinolide or ionomycin pretreatment. These pathways did not conduct Ca2+ simultaneously due to the dominant effect of arachidonate, which rapidly curtails SOCE and promotes Ca2+ influx via non-SOCE. Although non-SOCE could be activated by exogenous application of arachidonate, the most robust method for stimulation of this pathway was application of the widely used calmodulin antagonist calmidazolium, due to its ability to activate phospholipase A2.
Effect of calmidazolium analogs on calcium influx in HL-60 cells.[Pubmed:10856426]
Biochem Pharmacol. 2000 Aug 1;60(3):317-24.
The structure-activity relationships of calmidazolium analogs with respect to intracellular calcium levels were investigated in HL-60 cells. Quaternized derivatives of miconazole and clotrimazole, known inhibitors of store-operated calcium (SOC) channels, were synthesized. The quaternary N-methyl derivatives of miconazole (3) and clotrimazole (6) had no effect on intracellular calcium levels, alone or after elevation of calcium induced by ATP. Calmidazolium alone induced a large increase in intracellular calcium levels in HL-60 cells (EC(50) 3 microM). Similar effects were observed for miconazole derivatives 1 (EC(50) 15 microM) and 2 (EC(50) 10 microM), wherein the diphenylmethyl group in calmidazolium was replaced by a 3,5-difluorobenzyl or cyclohexylmethyl group, respectively. The analogous clotrimazole derivatives 4 and 5 had no effect on intracellular calcium levels. The elevation of calcium levels by calmidazolium, 1, and 2 appears to be comprised of a calcium release component from inositol trisphosphate (IP(3))-sensitive stores followed by a large calcium influx component. Calcium influx was greater than that normally observed due to depletion of IP(3)-sensitive calcium stores and activation of SOC channels. In addition, only a small component of the calmidazolium-elicited influx was inhibited by the SOC channel blocker miconazole. Thus, certain quaternized imidazoles substituted with large residues at both nitrogens of the imidazole ring caused both release and influx of calcium, the latter in part through SOC channels but mainly through an undefined cationic channel. Quaternized imidazoles, unlike the parent nonquaternary imidazole miconazole, did not block SOC channels. Inhibitory effects on calmodulin-activated phosphodiesterase did not correlate with effects on calcium release and influx.
Comparison of the calmodulin antagonists compound 48/80 and calmidazolium.[Pubmed:6141789]
Biochem J. 1983 Dec 15;216(3):611-6.
The two presumed calmodulin antagonists calmidazolium and compound 48/80 were compared for their effects on several calmodulin-dependent and calmodulin-independent enzyme systems. Compound 48/80 and calmidazolium were found to be about equipotent in antagonizing the calmodulin-dependent fraction of brain phosphodiesterase and erythrocyte Ca2+-transporting ATPase. Compound 48/80 combines high potency with high specificity in that: (1) the basal, calmodulin-independent, activity of calmodulin-regulated enzymes was not suppressed; (2) calmodulin-independent enzyme activities, such as Ca2+-transporting ATPases of sarcoplasmic reticulum, Mg2+-dependent ATPases of different tissues and Na+/K+-transporting ATPase of cardiac sarcolemma, were far less altered, or not altered at all, by compound 48/80 as compared with calmidazolium; and (3) antagonism of proteolysis-induced stimulation as opposed to calmodulin-induced activation of erythrocyte Ca2+-transporting ATPase required a 32 times higher concentration of compound 48/80. In all these aspects compound 48/80 was found to be a superior antagonist to calmidazolium since inhibition of calmodulin-independent events by the other agent occurred at considerably lower concentrations. Therefore compound 48/80 is proposed to be a much more specific and useful tool for studying the participation of calmodulin in biological processes than the presently used agents.
