Proadifen (SKF-525A) is a non-selectiveinhibitor ofcytochrome P450enzymes, preventing some types ofdrug metabolism.^[1] It is also an inhibitor of neuronalnitric oxide synthase (NOS), CYP-dependent (cytochrome P450-dependent)arachidonate metabolism, transmembrane calcium influx, and plateletthromboxane synthesis. Further documented effects include the blockade of ATP-sensitive inward rectifier potassium channel 8 (KIR6.1), and stimulation ofendothelial cellprostacyclin production.^[2]

Proadifen exerts apoptotic/anti-proliferate (tumour suppressing) effects in certain forms of cancer (HT-29 colon adenocarcinoma), believed to be caused by mediation ofglycogen synthase kinase 3 β (GSK-3β). In the same study administration of proadifen was demonstrated to produce time- and dose-dependentphosphatidylserine externalization,caspase-3 activation and PARP cleavage. Intense upregulation of NAG-1 and ATF3 and downregulation of Mcl-1 and Egr-1 were also observed.^[3]

Proadifen has been demonstrated to normally inhibit thenicotinic acetylcholine receptor (NAChR) andmuscarinic acetylcholine receptor (MAChR) in rats.^[2]
