Description and Uses

Ethacrynic acid is a loop diuretic with anticancer activity., It inhibits the Na-K-2Cl (NKCC) cotransporter in duck erythrocytes (IC50 = 0.18 mM) and ATP-dependent chloride uptake in rat renal plasma membrane vesicles when used at a concentration of 0.3 mM., Ethacrynic acid also inhibits glutathione S-transferase P1-1 (GSTP1-1) and GSTA3-3 (IC50s = 4.9 and ~0.4 μM, respectively), and inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling in a cell-based reporter assay. It is cytotoxic to primary chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells (IC50 = 8.56 μM), as well as MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, and 4T1 cancer cells (IC50s = 45.53, 39.64, and 25.23 μM, respectively). Ethacrynic acid (250 μg per day) increases tumor growth reduction induced by the EGFR family inhibitors afatinib (Item Nos. 11492 | 21567) or neratinib in a 4T1 murine breast cancer model. Formulations containing ethacrynic acid have been used in the treatment of edema.

Ethacrynic acid is a powerful diuretic prescribed for edema associated with cardiac insufficiency, renal edema that does not respond to other diuretics, and edema of the brain and lungs.
