We have assessed the effect of thiorphan or captopril on proliferation of two human tumor cell lines, A549 and HL60 including their influence on the cytostatic activity of interferon alpha or doxorubicin. The results showed that captopril inhibits the proliferation of both A549 and HL60 cells lines but thiorphan has antiproliferative effect only on A549 cells in a dose-dependent manner. However, neither captopril nor thiorphan administered in combination with interferon alpha or doxorubicin enhanced cytotoxic potential of doxorubicin and cytostatic activity of interferon alpha.

D002216 Captopril A potent and specific inhibitor of PEPTIDYL-DIPEPTIDASE A. It blocks the conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, a vasoconstrictor and important regulator of arterial blood pressure. Captopril acts to suppress the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM and inhibits pressure responses to exogenous angiotensin.
