Perhexiline  (Synonyms: 哌克昔林；双环己哌啶；环己哌啶；环基哌啶)

Perhexiline is an orally active CPT1 and CPT2 inhibitor that reduces fatty acid metabolism. Perhexiline induces mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in hepatic cells. Perhexiline can cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) and shows anti-tumor activity. Perhexiline can be used in the research of cancers, and cardiovascular disease like angina^[1][2][5].

Perhexiline (5-25 μM, 2-6 h) reduces cell viability in HepG2 cells^[2].
Perhexiline (5-25 μM, 2-6 h) reduces cellular ATP content and Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in HepG2 cells^[2].
Perhexiline (20 μM, 2 h) activates caspase 3/7 in HepG2 cells^[2].
Perhexiline (5-25 μM, 4 h) causes mitochondrial dysfunction in HepG2 cells^[2].
Perhexiline (5 μM, 48 h) selectively induces massive apoptosis in CLL cells (high expression of CPT)^[3].

Perhexiline (200 mg/kg, p.o., daily for 8 weeks) reduces peripheral neural function in female DA rats^[4].
Perhexiline (80 mg/kg, oral gavage, for 3 days) demonstrates anti-tumor activity in glioblastoma mouse model^[5].
