Biological Activity
| Description | Doxazosin, a quinazoline-derivative, selectively antagonizes postsynaptic α1-adrenergic receptors, used in the treatment of high blood pressure and urinary retention associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. | |

| Targets |
|
|
| In vitro | Doxazosin-induced apoptosis is blocked by specific caspase-8 inhibitors, supporting the functional involvement of caspase-8 in doxazosin-induced apoptosis. Doxazosin increases FADD recruitment and subsequent caspase-8 activation, implicating Fas-mediated apoptosis as the underlying mechanism of the effect of Doxazosin in prostate cells. [1] Doxazosin and cholestyramine similarly decreases plasma total and LDL plus VLDL cholesterols, and total triglycerides on average by 46%, 61% and 45% respectively. [2] Doxazosin induces DNA damage and cell death in HL-1 cell line. Doxazosin treatment decreases cell viability in primary cultures of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, and Hoechst dye vital staining demonstrates doxazosin-induced apoptosis in primary cultures of human adult cardiomyocytes. [3] Doxazosin antagonizes the VEGF-mediated angiogenic response of HUVEC cells, by abrogating cell adhesion to fibronectin and collagen-coated surfaces and inhibiting cell migration, via a potential downregulation of VEGF expression. [4] | |
| In vivo | Doxazosin also reduces mean arterial pressure by 18% without affecting heart rate in all hamsters. [2] Doxazosin causes a significant reduction in the wet weight of BabeTGF-beta 1-infected mouse prostate reconstitution (MPR). [5] |
