3-amino-1,2,4-triazole

3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (Trapidil impurity B) is an inhibitor of catalase, capable of inducing the compensatory mechanism for hydrogen peroxide detoxification. This mechanism involves increasing the activities of glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase.

CAY10761 is an inhibitor of ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1; IC50s = 467 and 429 μM for the human and snake venom enzymes, respectively).1,2 It also inhibits mushroom tyrosinase (Ki = 1.9 μM) and urease from jack bean, P. mirabilis, and B. pasteurii (IC50s = 0.093, <0.125, and 0.089 mM, respectively, at pH 8.2).3,4 |1.
