Description: Nitroxazepine, a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, is a potent tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) for the treatment of depression. It also has potential anticancer activity. The effect of nitroxazepine hydrochloride on the intracellular accumulation of adriamycin and the inhibition of DNA synthesis were studied in these cells. The survival of mice bearing adriamycin-resistant P388 murine leukemia cells treated in vitro with nitroxazepine hydrochloride, adriamycin and a combination of the two drugs was also investigated. The results show that treatment of these cells with nitroxazepine hydrochloride significantly enhanced (1) the intracellular accumulation of adriamycin, (2) inhibition of DNA biosynthesis, and (3) the survival of mice transplanted with adriamycin-resistant P388 murine leukemia cells treated in vitro with a combination of nitroxazepine hydrochloride and adriamycin. The mechanism of restoration of drug sensitivity by nitroxazepine hydrochloride in adriamycin-resistant P388 cells could be due to an enhanced intracellular accumulation of adriamycin. The implications of the present investigations are promising, leaving hope for the utility of nitroxazepine hydrochloride in restoring drug sensitivity in adriamycin-resistant tumors.
