Capsazepine is a novel, potent and synthetic antagonist of TRPM8 channels (IC50 = 562 nM) with potential anticancer activity. A major problem in clinical trials of tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) as cancer therapy is the development of resistance to TRAIL. Therefore, agents that can overcome TRAIL resistance have great therapeutic potential. Capsazepine, as a TRPV1 antagonist, has ability to sensitize human colon cancer cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Capsazepine potentiated the effect of TRAIL, as shown by its effect on intracellular esterase activity; activation of caspase-8,-9, and -3; and colony-formation assay. Capsazepine induced death receptors (DRs) DR5 and DR4, but not decoy receptors, at the transcriptional level and in a non-cell-type-specific manner. It blocks the painful sensation of heat caused by capsaicin (the active ingredient of chilli pepper) which activates the TRPV1 ion channel. It is therefore considered to be a capsaicin antagonist.

ln Vitro |
The upregulation of death receptors (DRs) is optimally enhanced by capsazepine (50 μM) without compromising the viability of HCT116 cells. In HCT116 cells, capsazepine (30-50 μM) causes the generation of ROS, and ROS mediate the upregulation of DR5 caused by capsazepine[1]. In 45 minutes of preincubation, capsazepine (1–100 μM) inhibits the release of CGRP–LI when evoked. In rat soleus muscle, capsazepine (3-100 μM) inhibits the release of CGRP-LI when exposed to low pH and capsaicin at concentrations that do not impact the release elicited by KCl. A nonspecific inhibitory effect on CGRP-LI release from the peripheral endings of the capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent neurone is produced by capsazepine (3-100 μM, without 10 μM)[2].

ln Vivo |
During endotoxemia, capsazepine (15 mg/kg, sc) reduces the increase in tissue damping and stops the respiratory system from becoming more resistant. Capsazepine lessens lung damage as shown by a decrease in the area of the lung parenchyma that collapses when exposed to LPS[3].

Enzyme Assay |
1. We have determined the effect of the competitive antagonist capsazepine at the capsaicin receptor on the release of calcitonin gene-related peptide-like immunoreactivity (CGRP-LI) from rat isolated soleus muscle induced by capsaicin (1 microM), by superfusion with low pH medium (pH 5) or by KCl (80 mM). 2. Each one of the three stimuli tested produced a marked CGRP-LI release. Total evoked release (fmol g-1) was 482 +/- 69, 169 +/- 20 and 253 +/- 43 for capsiacin, low pH medium and KCL, respectively. 3. Prior application of capsiacin (10 microM for 30 min followed by 30 min of washout) to produce capasaicin desensitization in vitro abolished CGRP-LI release induced by the three stimuli. 4. Capsazepine (1-100 microM, 45 min preincubation) inhibited the evoked CGRP-LI release. Capsaicin-induced release was significantly inhibited by 77, 92 and 96% with 10, 30 and 100 microM capsazepine, respectively. Low pH-induced release was inhibited by 78, 84, 88 and 93% with 3, 10, 30 and 100 microM capsazepine, respectively. KCl-induced release was significantly inhibited by 55 and 93% with 30 and 100 microM (but not with 10 microM) capsazepine, respectively. 5. These findings demonstrate that capsazepine prevents low pH- and capsaicin-induced CGRP-LI release from rat soleus muscle at concentrations which do not affect the release evoked by KCl. These findings imply a relationship between the action of low pH and activation of the capsaicin receptor. At high concentrations, capsazepine produces a nonspecific inhibitory effect on CGRP-LI release from peripheral endings of the capsaicin-sensitive primary afferent neurone.[2]

Cell Assay |
In this study, we evaluated capsazepine, a TRPV1 antagonist, for its ability to sensitize human colon cancer cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Capsazepine potentiated the effect of TRAIL, as shown by its effect on intracellular esterase activity; activation of caspase-8,-9, and -3; and colony-formation assay. Capsazepine induced death receptors (DRs) DR5 and DR4, but not decoy receptors, at the transcriptional level and in a non-cell-type-specific manner. DR induction was dependent on CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP), as shown by (a) the induction of CHOP by capsazepine and (b) the abolition of DR- and potentiation of TRAIL-induced apoptosis by CHOP gene silencing. CHOP induction was also reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent, as shown by capsazepine's ability to induce ROS and by the quenching of ROS by N-acetylcysteine or glutathione, which prevented induction of CHOP and DR5 and consequent sensitization to TRAIL. Capsazepine's effects appeared to be mediated via JNK, as shown by capsazepine's ability to induce JNK and by the suppression of both CHOP and DR5 activation by inhibition of JNK. Furthermore, ROS sequestration abrogated the activation of JNK. Finally, capsazepine downregulated the expression of various antiapoptotic proteins (e.g., cFLIP and survivin) and increased the expression of proapoptotic proteins (e.g., Bax and p53). Together, our results indicate that capsazepine potentiates the apoptotic effects of TRAIL through downregulation of cell survival proteins and upregulation of death receptors via the ROS-JNK-CHOP-mediated pathway.[1]

Additional Infomation |
Capsazepine is a benzazepine that is 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-2-benzazepine which is substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 7 and 8 and on the nitrogen atom by a 2-(p-chlorophenyl)ethylaminothiocarbonyl group. A synthetic analogue of capsaicin, it was the first reported capsaicin receptor antagonist. It has a role as a capsaicin receptor antagonist. It is a member of catechols, a member of thioureas, a benzazepine and a member of monochlorobenzenes.
