产品描述

Thiocolchicoside is a GABAA receptor antagonist.1 It inhibits GABAA receptor-mediated currents in Purkinje cells isolated from rat cerebellum (IC50 = 0.15 ?M). It binds strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors in isolated rat spinal cord (IC50 = 1.58 ?M).2 Thiocolchicoside inhibits cell growth in a panel of cancer cell lines, including KBM5 leukemia and U266 myeloma cells, SCC4 squamous cell carcinoma cells, and HCT116 colon, MCF-7 breast, and A293 kidney cancer cells when used at concentrations ranging from 25 to 100 ?M.3 It inhibits the anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-2, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP), myeloid cell leukemia-1 (Mcl-1), Bcl-xL, cIAP-1, and cIAP-2 in KBM5 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. It also inhibits TNF-α-induced NF-κB activation and IκBα degradation in KBM5 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Formulations containing thiocolchicoside have been used as muscle relaxers in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, joint stiffness, and muscle stiffness.

Thiocolchicoside: review of adverse effects

Prescrire Int 2016 Feb;25(168):41-3.PMID:27042729doi

Thiocolchicoside has long been used as a muscle relaxant, despite a lack of proven efficacy beyond the placebo effect. Its chemical structure consists of colchicine, a sugar (ose) and a sulphur-containing radical (thio), and its adverse effects are therefore likely to be similar to those of colchicine. Using the standard Prescrire methodology, we reviewed the available data on the adverse effects of Thiocolchicoside. Liver injury, pancreatitis, seizures, blood cell disorders, severe cutaneous disorders, rhabdomyolysis and reproductive disorders have all been recorded in the French and European pharmacovigilance databases and in the periodic updates that the companies concerned submit to regulatory agencies. These data do not specify the frequency of the disorders nor do they identify the most susceptible patient populations. Thiocolchicoside is teratogenic in experimental animals and also damages chromosomes. Human data are limited to a follow-up of about 30 pregnant women (no major malformations) and reports of altered spermatogenesis, including cases of azoospermia. In practice, there is no justification for exposing patients to the adverse effects of Thiocolchicoside. It is better to use an effective, well-known analgesic for patients complaining of muscle pain, starting with paracetamol.

Benzodiazepine partially reverses tonic-clonic seizures induced by Thiocolchicoside

Braz J Med Biol Res 2022 Feb 28;55:e11771.PMID:35239777DOI:10.1590/1414-431X2021e11771.

Seizures are a disorder caused by structural brain lesions, life-threatening metabolic derangements, or drug toxicity. The present study describes the behavior related to proconvulsant activity induced by Thiocolchicoside (TCC) in rats and investigates the electrocorticographic patterns of this behavior and the effectiveness of classic antiepileptic drugs used to control these seizures. Forty-nine adult male Wistar rats were used and divided into two phases of our experimental design: 1) evaluation of seizure-related behavior and electrocorticographic patterns induced by TCC and 2) evaluation of the efficacy of classical antiepileptic drugs to control the proconvulsive activity caused by TCC. Our results showed that TCC induced tonic-clonic seizures that caused changes in electrocorticographic readings, characteristic of convulsive activity, with average amplitude greater than that induced by pentylenetetrazole. Treatment with anticonvulsants, especially diazepam, reduced the electrocorticographic outbreaks induced by TCC. The results suggested that TCC caused seizures with increased power in brain oscillations up to 40 Hz and that diazepam may partially reverse the effects.

Immediate allergic reaction to Thiocolchicoside confirmed by skin testing and basophil activation test: A case report and literature review

Asian Pac J Allergy Immunol 2021 Jan 2.PMID:33386791DOI:10.12932/AP-250320-0793.

Background: Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic. Administered orally, intramuscularly, or topically, this drug is used in the symptomatic treatment of muscular spasms and rheumatologic disorders. Despite its extensive use, Thiocolchicoside is a very rare sensitizer. Objective: To evaluate IgE-mediated reaction to Thiocolchicoside by basophil activation test. Methods: Allergological work-up with skin prick tests, intradermal tests and basophil activation test with Thiocolchicoside. Results: We report the first case of immediate reaction to Thiocolchicoside confirmed by basophil activation test in addition to positive skin tests. Conclusions: BAT can be considered a complementary diagnostic tool to demonstrate an IgE-mediated reaction also for muscle relaxant drugs.

Thiocolchicoside exhibits anticancer effects through downregulation of NF-κB pathway and its regulated gene products linked to inflammation and cancer

Cancer Prev Res (Phila) 2010 Nov;3(11):1462-72.PMID:20978115DOI:10.1158/1940-6207.CAPR-10-0037.

The discovery of new uses for older, clinically approved drugs is one way to expedite drug development for cancer. Thiocolchicoside, a semisynthetic colchicoside from the plant Gloriosa superba, is a muscle relaxant and used to treat rheumatologic and orthopedic disorders because of its analgesic and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. Given that activation of the transcription factor NF-κB plays a major role in inflammation and tumorigenesis, we postulated that Thiocolchicoside would inhibit NF-κB and exhibit anticancer effects through the modulation of NF-κB-regulated proteins. We show that Thiocolchicoside inhibited proliferation of leukemia, myeloma, squamous cell carcinoma, breast, colon, and kidney cancer cells. Formation of tumor colonies was also suppressed by Thiocolchicoside. The colchicoside induced apoptosis, as indicated by caspase-3 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage, and suppressed the expression of cell survival [e.g., Bcl-2, X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP), MCL-1, bcl-xL, cIAP-1, cIAP-2, and cFLIP] proteins. Cell proliferation biomarkers such as c-MYC and phosphorylation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase and glycogen synthase kinase 3β were also blocked by Thiocolchicoside. Because most cell survival and proliferation gene products are regulated by NF-κB, we studied the effect of Thiocolchicoside on this transcription factor and found that Thiocolchicoside inhibited NF-κB activation, degradation of inhibitory κBα (IκBα), IκBα ubiquitination, and phosphorylation, abolished the activation of IκBα kinase, and suppressed p65 nuclear translocation. This effect of Thiocolchicoside on the NF-κB pathway led to inhibition of NF-κB reporter activity and cyclooxygenase-2 promoter activity. Our results indicate that Thiocolchicoside exhibits anticancer activity through inhibition of NF-κB and NF-κB-regulated gene products, which provides novel insight into a half-century old drug.

Thiocolchicoside inhibits the activity of various subtypes of recombinant GABA(A) receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes

Eur J Pharmacol 2007 Mar 8;558(1-3):37-42.PMID:17234181DOI:10.1016/j.ejphar.2006.11.076.

Thiocolchicoside is a myorelaxant drug with anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties as well as pronounced convulsant activity. To characterize the mechanisms of action of this drug at the molecular level, we examined its effects on the function of various recombinant neurotransmitter receptors expressed in Xenopus oocytes. Electrophysiological recordings from recombinant human gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptors consisting of alpha1beta1gamma2L, alpha1beta2gamma2L, or alpha2beta2gamma2L subunit combinations revealed that Thiocolchicoside inhibited GABA-evoked Cl(-) currents with similar potencies (median inhibitory concentrations of 0.13 to 0.2 microM) and in a competitive manner. Consistent with previous observations, Thiocolchicoside also inhibited the binding of GABA to rat cerebral cortical membranes. Thiocolchicoside inhibited the function of recombinant human strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors composed of the alpha1 subunit with a potency (median inhibitory concentration of 47 microM) lower than that apparent with recombinant GABA(A) receptors. It also inhibited the function of human nicotinic acetylcholine receptors composed of the alpha4 and beta2 subunits, but this effect was only partial and apparent at high concentrations. In contrast, Thiocolchicoside had no effect on the function of 5-HT(3A) serotonin receptors. Our results thus provide molecular evidence that the epileptogenic activity of Thiocolchicoside might be due to inhibition of the function of inhibitory receptors in the central nervous system, especially that of GABA(A) receptors.
