Glutathione reductase (EC 1.6.4.2) is an enzyme that maintains the supply of reduced glutathione [1].

Thioredoxin reductase peptide, corresponding to residues 53-67 in thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), is used in thioredoxin reductase research. Mammalian thioredoxin reductase (TR) catalyzes the reduction of the redox-active disulfide bond of thioredoxin (Trx) and is structurally and mechanistically similar to glutathione reductase, except for a C-terminal 16-amino acid extension containing a rare vicinal selenylsulfide bond.

Thioredoxin reductase peptide acetate corresponds to residues 53–67 in thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), used in thioredoxin reductase research.Mammalian thioredoxin reductase (TR) catalyzes the reduction of the redox-active disulfide bond of thioredoxin (Trx

Epristeride (ONO-9302) is an orally active, selective and non-competitive steroidal 5-α-reductase isoform 2 inhibitor that inhibits SR isoform 2.Episteride reduces prostate size and improves symptoms in men with BPH.Episteride induces atrophy and apoptosis of the ventral prostate in rats.

Lidorestat (IDD-676) is an aldose reductase inhibitor (IC50: 5 nM) with effective, selective and oral activity. Lidorestat improves nerve conduction and reduces the formation of cataracts. Lidorestat can be used to treat complications of chronic diabetes.

Ranirestat (AS-3201) is an orally active and potent aldose reductase (AR) inhibitor with neuroprotective properties that ameliorates peripheral nerve dysfunction in rats with advanced diabetic polyneuropathy.Ranirestat inhibits the inflammatory response of high glucose-exposed endothelial cells and may be useful for the study of diabetic sensory-motor polyneuropathy.

Risarestat (CT-112) is a potent aldose reductase inhibitor and thyroid hormone receptor (TR) antagonist for the treatment of hypoglycemia.

Tolrestat (AY-27773) is a potent inhibitor of aldose reductase (IC50 = 35 nM).

D-Methionine sulfoxide inhibits peptide methionine sulfoxide reductase and can be used to inhibit ochre mites.D-Methionine sulfoxide can be added to chicken feed to promote growth.

Izonsteride (LY320236) is a selective and potent 5alpha reductase inhibitor with dual action on the type I and type II isoforms of the enzyme.Izonsteride is used in the treatment of oncology and genitourinary disorders, and may be used in the study of prostate cancer.

Alconil (Al 1567) is an aldose reductase inhibitor that may be used to study chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and diabetes.

Minalrestat(ARI-509) is an orally active and potent aldose reductase inhibitor for the study of impaired microvascular reactivity in diabetic patients.

MK 0434 is an orally active steroidal 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor.

Turosteride is a small molecule steroidal 5α-reductase (5α-reductase) inhibitor.Turosteride has antitumor activity for the treatment of oncologic diseases and genitourinary disorders, and may be used in the study of prostate cancer.

Isomer-Turosteride (Isomer-Turosteride(Isomer-137099-09-3)) is a novel 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor.The antiprostatic effect of Isomer-Turosteride in adult rats is associated with the inhibition of the conversion of T to DHT.Isomer-Turosteride induces a decrease in prostate DHT independent of a secondary increase in T. Isomer-Turosteride has anticancer activity and inhibits the growth of tumor cells. Turosteride has anticancer activity and inhibits the growth of tumor cells.

Finasteride (MK-906) is an oral inhibitor of active testosterone 5-alpha-reductase and Ki value is 10 nM.

Isoliquiritigenin (ISL) is a flavonoid natural product that inhibits influenza virus replication (EC50=24.7 μM) and aldose reductase activity (IC50=320 nM). Isoliquiritigenin has antitumor activity.

Epalrestat (ONO2235), an aldose reductase inhibitor, is well tolerated in Long-term therapy. It can effectually ameliorate the associated symptoms of diabetic neuropathy and delay the progression of the disease, particularly in patients with limited microangiopathy and good glycemic control.

Dutasteride (GI 198745) is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that inhibits both type-1 and type2 isoforms of the enzyme and is used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Alpha-Estradiol (Epiestradiol) is an estrogen that inhibits 5alpha-reductase and has potential in the study of androgenetic alopecia.

DL-Glyceraldehyde (Glyceric aldehyde) is produced from the action of the enzyme glyceraldehyde dehydrogenase, which converts glycerol to glyceraldehyde using NADP as a cofactor. When present at sufficiently high levels, DL-Glyceraldehyde can be a cytotoxin and a mutagen. A cytotoxin is a compound that kills cells. A mutagen is a compound that causes mutations in DNA. DL-Glyceraldehyde is a highly reactive compound that can modify and cross-link proteins. DL-Glyceraldehyde modified proteins appear to be cytotoxic, depress intracellular glutathione levels, and induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) production (PMID: 14981296 ). DL-Glyceraldehyde has been shown to cause chromosome damage to human cells in culture and is mutagenic in the Ames bacterial test.
