Biological activities

Sulfaphenazole is a sulfamide antibacterial. Sulfaphenazole acts as a strong, competitive inhibitor of CYP 2C9 with a Ki of 0.30µM. And sulfaphenazole acts as a ligand of high-affinity for CYP 2C9 iron with a Ks of 0.4µM. Sulfaphenazole is less potent toward CYP 2C8 and 2C18 with Ki of 63 and 29µM, respectively. Sulfaphenazole has inhibitory effects on several recombinant human liver cytochromes P450 expressed in yeast, including the four members of the CYP 2C subfamily present in human liver, CYP 2C8, 2C9, 2C18, and 2C19. [1] Besides, the mean IC50 for sulfaphenazole is 0.46µM for inhibition of flurbiprofen hydroxylation. Sulfaphenazole also inhibits phenytoin (PPH) hydroxylation with IC50 of 0.48 and 0.49µM, at PPH concentrations of 5µM and 10µM, respectively.[2] Sulfaphenazole can significantly reduce infarct size and restore post ischemic coronary flow following ischemia and reperfusion while decreasing the generation of superoxide anions. Sulfaphenazole can attenuate post ischemic vascular dysfunction and restore NO-mediated endothelium- dependent vasoclilatation through the inhibition of CYP 2C activity. In vivo, sulfaphenazole restores endothelial-mediated relaxation in treated db/db mice, without affecting plasma glucose concentrations.[3]
