Polymorphic hydroxylation of perhexiline maleate in man.
Long term perhexiline maleate therapy causes peripheral neuropathy and hepatic damage in certain subjects. An association between these adverse reactions and a genetically determined relative inability to hydroxylate debrisoquine has been described. This association could indicate either that the effects of perhexiline impair debrisoquine oxidation thus producing a phenocopy, or that perhexilin...

متن کاملPerhexiline maleate toxicity on human liver cell lines.
When added to the culture medium of human liver cell lines, perhexiline maleate induced formation of numerous myeloid bodies containing unicentric or multicentric smooth membranes within a few days. The nine lysosomal enzyme activities studied, except for beta-galactosidase which decreased, remained unchanged. These results indicate that on cultured human liver cells perhexiline maleate has an ...
متن کاملPerhexiline maleate in the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: an open-labeled clinical trial
BACKGROUND Currently, there are no effective medical treatment options to prevent the formation of heterotopic bones in fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). By the drug repositioning strategy, we confirmed that perhexiline maleate (Pex) potentially ameliorates heterotopic ossification in model cells and mice. Here, we conducted a prospective study to assess the efficacy and safety of Pe...
