Pentamidine is a broad-spectrum anti-infective agent that interferes with polyamine synthesis and RNA polymerase activity, demonstrating efficacy against a variety of parasites, protozoa, and fungi[1,2]. As a well-established diamidine drug with a long history of clinical use, Pentamidine is widely employed for the treatment of Pneumocystis pneumonia, leishmaniasis, and trypanosomiasis, and is also commonly used in research related to infectious diseases[3].
In vitro, treatment of various human malignant cell lines (WM9, DU145, C4-2, Hey, WM480, and A549) with Pentamidine (0-10μM) for 6 days resulted in concentration-dependent inhibition of cell growth across all six lines, with complete suppression observed at 10μM[4]. In LPS-induced (20ng/mL) RAW264.7 cells, 24h treatment with Pentamidine (1, 10, 100μM) concentration-dependently suppressed the overexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β at both mRNA and protein levels[5]. Exposure of HeLa cells to γ-irradiation (5Gy) in the presence of Pentamidine (0.05mM) disrupted mitotic progression and led to an increase in multinucleated cells[6].
In vivo, intramuscular administration of Pentamidine (6-10mg/kg (0.25mg/mouse); every 2 days) in 6-week-old nude mice inoculated with WM9 cells significantly inhibited tumor growth throughout the 16-week study period. No significant abnormalities were observed, and the mice exhibited steady weight gain[4]. In a LPS-induced (25mg/kg; i.p.) septic C57BL/6 mouse model, intraperitoneal injection of Pentamidine (10mg/kg; once a day) for 4 days prolonged survival, attenuated systemic inflammation, and ameliorated LPS-induced damage in the liver, kidney, and lungs[5]. Treatment with Pentamidine (0.8, 4mg/kg) in dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)-induced acute colitis CD-1 mice resulted in comprehensive improvement of colitis-related intestinal symptoms, preserved colon length, and prevented splenomegaly[7].

Pentamidine是一种可干扰多胺合成和RNA聚合酶活性的广谱抗感染剂,对多种寄生虫、原生动物和真菌都具有活性[1,2]。Pentamidine作为一种使用历史悠久的二脒类药物,已被广泛应用于肺孢子虫肺炎、利什曼病和锥虫病等的治疗,也常被用于相关感染性疾病的研究[3]。
在体外,Pentamidine(0-10μM)处理不同的人类恶性肿瘤WM9、DU145、C4-2、Hey、WM480和A549细胞6天,所有六种细胞系的生长均被Pentamidine以浓度依赖性的方式抑制,并在10μM时细胞的生长完全受到抑制[4]。Pentamidine(1, 10, 100μM)处理脂多糖LPS诱导(20ng/mL)的RAW264.7细胞24h,浓度依赖性地抑制了LPS诱导的促炎细胞因子TNF-α和1L-1β在mRNA和蛋白水平的过度产生[5]。用含有Pentamidine(0.05mM)的γ-射线(5Gy)照射HeLa细胞,会影响有丝分裂的进行并导致多核细胞数量的增加[6]。
在体内,Pentamidine(6~10mg/kg (0.25mg/mouse); every 2 days)通过臀部肌肉注射治疗接种了WM9细胞的6周龄裸鼠,在16周的研究期间,可显著抑制WM9细胞的生长,且小鼠未出现明显异常,体重还稳步增长[4]。Pentamidine(10mg/kg; once a day)通过腹腔注射治疗由LPS诱导(25mg/kg; i.p.)的脓毒症C57BL/6小鼠4天,延长了小鼠的存活时间,并减轻了LPS引起的小鼠肝脏、肾脏和肺脏损害及全身炎症[5]。Pentamidine(0.8, 4mg/kg)处理dextran sodium sulphate (DSS)诱导的急性结肠炎CD-1小鼠,小鼠与结肠炎相关的肠道症状得到全面改善,并能保持结肠长度并防止小鼠的脾肿大[7]。
