azalanstat

Azalanstat (RS 21607) is an orally available selective mammalian lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase inhibitor with hypocholesterolemic activity that inhibits cholesterol synthesis in HepG2 cells, human fibroblasts, hamster hepatocytes, and hamster livers through inhibition of the cytochrome P450 enzyme, lanosterol 14 alpha demethylase.

BR103 is a metabolically stable C3aR-selective agonist that can be used to assess the ligand affinity of G protein-coupled receptors and to induce paw edema models.

Azalanstat HCl is an anti-obesity drug acting as a lanosterol 14α-demethylase inhibitor. Azalanstat HCl has been shown to inhibit cholesterol synthesis in HepG2 cells, human fibroblasts, hamster hepatocytes and hamster liver, by inhibiting the cytochrome P450 enzyme lanosterol 14 alpha-demethylase. When administered orally to hamsters fed regular chow, RS-21607 (50 mg/kg/day) lowered serum cholesterol in a dose-dependent manner (ED50 = 62 mg/kg) in a period of 1 week. It preferentially lowered low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apo B relative to high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apo A-1.

Azalanstat mesylate is an anti-obesity drug acting as a lanosterol 14α-demethylase inhibitor. Azalanstat mesylate has been shown to inhibit cholesterol synthesis in HepG2 cells, human fibroblasts, hamster hepatocytes and hamster liver, by inhibiting the cytochrome P450 enzyme lanosterol 14 alpha-demethylase. When administered orally to hamsters fed regular chow, RS-21607 (50 mg/kg/day) lowered serum cholesterol in a dose-dependent manner (ED50 = 62 mg/kg) in a period of 1 week. It preferentially lowered low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apo B relative to high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apo A-1.

Ici D8731 is a nonpeptide angiotensin II antagonist with potential as a treatment for hypertension and heart failure.

(2R,4S)-Azalanstat (Iso-Azalansta) is a selective heme oxygenase (HO) inhibitor that is used in the study of cardiovascular disease.
