Carbidopa ((S)-(-)-Carbidopa), a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor, can be used for the research of Parkinson's disease. Carbidopa is a selective aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) modulator. Carbidopa inhibits pancreatic cancer cell and tumor growth.
体外研究
Carbidopa ((S)-(-)-Carbidopa) exhibits activities similar to that described for other AhR ligands in BχPC3 and Capan-2 cells, namely the induction of CYP1A1 and CYP1A2, which are inhibited by AhR antagonists such as CH223191.
体内研究
Carbidopa also induces nuclear uptake of the AhR, and in vivo studies show that carbidopa at a dose of 1 mg/mouse significantly inhibits tumor growth in athymic nude mice bearing BχPC3 cells as xenografts.
