Bioactivity

In Vivo
The present studies evaluate the mechanism of action of two novel antifibrotic compounds, HOE 077 and Safironil, which were designed as competitive inhibitors of collagen protein synthesis. Stellate cell activation, rather than collagen synthesis, proved to be the target of both HOE 077 and Safironil in the intact liver. In culture, the drugs not only prevented the activation of stellate cells but also accelerated their deactivation. They were no more effective in co-cultures containing hepatocytes than in pure stellate cell cultures, indicating that metabolic conversion of HOE 077 was not required. Interestingly, the response of cells from females was greater than that of male cells, leading to the conclusion that stellate activation is sexually dimorphic. This finding may be relevant to the observation that fibrosis in chronic viral hepatitis progresses less rapidly and that hepatocellular carcinoma is less frequent in females than in males.
In Vitro
HOE 77, Safironil, and S 4682 are inhibitors of prolyl 4-hydroxylase, which is essential for thecollagen formation. Although HOE 77, Safironil, and S 4682 seem to work by inhibiting HSC activation, further studies will be required before their clinical application. alpha-Tocopherol, retinyl palmitate, and silybinin reduce lipid peroxidation and attenuate HSC activation in experimental models.
