DPPE is a potent, selective ligand of the microsomal anti-estrogen binding site.
DPPE is a potent, selective ligand of the microsomal anti-estrogen binding site. DPPE is a tamoxifen derivataive that binds with high affinity to the anti-estrogen binding site, but unlike tamoxifen, does not bind to the estrogen receptor. DPPE sensitizes MDR tumor cells to chemotherapy and also inhibits histamine binding at the intracellular histamine site.

Endogenous histamine regulates the haematopoiesis. Histidine decarboxylase inhibitor decreases the histamine level, and its intracellular antagonist decreases the histamine effect. The effect of histidine decarboxylase inhibitor (alpha-fluoromethyl histidine) and the intracellular antagonist of histamine [N'N-diethyl-2-4-(phenylmethyl) phenoxyethan-amine-HCl] was investigated on the
N,N-diethyl-2-[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxyl]ethanamine (tesmilifene), a tamoxifen derivative with antihistamine activity, greatly enhanced the survival of doxorubicin-treated, advanced stage breast cancer patients in a phase III trial. However, the molecular basis of tesmilifene action is not firmly established. The effects of tesmilifene on

This study was designed to the elucidate sensitising effects of the intracellular histamine antagonist, N,N-diethyl-2[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxy] ethanamine HCl (DPPE) on the antitumour activity of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP) using human ovarian cancer cell lines with different sensitivities to CDDP (KF, sensitive) KFra
New compounds have been synthesized based on the structure of the anti-tumoral drug tamoxifen and its diphenylmethane derivative, N,N-diethyl-2-[(4-phenyl-methyl)-phenoxy]-ethanamine, HCl (DPPE). These new compounds have no affinity for the estrogen receptor (ER) and bind with various affinity to the anti-estrogen

N,N-diethyl-2-[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxy] ethanamine.HCl (DPPE) is a diphenylmethane analog of tamoxifen that antagonizes the intracellular binding of histamine to growth-regulatory sites, a proportion of which represents P450 enzymes, in microsomes and nuclei. We previously reported increased response rates and decreased myelotoxicity in
