Canrenone BiologicalActivity

DescriptionCanrenone (Aldadiene; SC9376; SC14266) is an aldosterone antagonist extensively used as a diuretic agent.

Target

Target: Aldosterone[1]

In VitroCanrenone inhibits the production of eortieosterone, 18-hydroxydesoxyeortieosterone, 18-hydroxycorticosterone and aldosterone in a dose-dependent manner[1]. Canrenone dose-dependently reduces platelet-derived growth factor–induced cell proliferation and motility. Canrenone inhibits the activity of the Na+/H+ exchanger 1 induced by platelet-derived growth factor[2].
In VivoCanrenone is the principal active metabolite of Spironolactone in the rat only for a limited period. During chronic treatment a difference developed between the effect of Spironolactone and Canrenone on the RAAS indicating a decrease in the anti-mineralocorticoid activity of Canrenone and an increase in the efficacy of Spironolactone[3].
Cell AssayConfluent Hepatic Stellate Cells (HSC) are incubated in SFIF medium for 24 hours and exposed to increasing concentrations of canrenone (1, 5, 10, 25 μM). Cell viability is evaluated by the trypan blue dye exclusion test at the end of a 24- to 48-hour incubation period[2].
Animal AdminRats[3] Canrenone (CAN) is given orally in two different doses (10.25, 20.5 mg/mL) to Male SPF Sprague-Dawley rats for 6 weeks. To determine the Na+, K+, fluid and aldosterone excretion the urine of the rats destined to be killed after 6 weeks is collected at weekly intervals[3].
