LGE-899 (Sonidegib metabolite M48) is a main metabolite of Sonidegib which is an inhibitor of the hedgehog pathway. The Tmax of LGE-899(60 h) is much longer than Sonidegib.

Leukotriene D4 (LTD4) is a potent pro-inflammatory mediator formed from arachidonic acid, a bronchoconstrictor, and induces osteoclast senescence.Leukotriene D4 induces transcriptional activity of potentially oncogenic genes and can be used in the study of asthma.

DP-1 hydrochloride is a degradation product of SDC-TRAP-0063, a fragment of Ganetespib, a heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) inhibitor with antitumor activity.

GS-829845 is a JAK1 inhibitor, the main component of the active metabolite of Filgotinib, which is approximately 10-fold less potent and has a longer half-life than the parent.

Endoxifen hydrochloride, a principal active metabolite of Tamoxifen (TAM), exhibits heightened affinity and specificity towards the estrogen receptor and possesses aromatase inhibitory capability. It holds promise for breast cancer research.

2-Hydroxy atorvastatin calcium salt is a hydroxy metabolite of atorvastatin calcium salt, a potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (IC50 = 8 nM).

ACP-5862 is a major active and pyrrolidine ring-opened metabolite of Acalabrutinib (IC50: 5.0 nM for BTK). Acalabrutinib is an irreversible and highly selective BTK inhibitor (IC50: 3 nM; EC50: 8 nM).

Niraparib metabolite M1 (Niraparib carboxylic acid metabolite M1) is the carboxylic acid metabolite of Niraparib. Niraparib is a novel poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor used in cancer research.

OR-1896 is the active metabolite of Levosimendan, a highly specific phosphodiesterase (PDE III) inhibitor, a vasodilator with partial anti-inflammatory properties that produces vasodilation in different types of blood vessels through activation of ATP-sensitive (KATP) and other potassium channels.OR-1896 can be used to study heart failure and vascular dysfunction. OR-1896 can be used to study heart failure and vascular dysfunction.

Abiraterone Metabolite 1, a 5β-reduced derivative of abiraterone, acts by inhibiting CYP17A1, thereby blocking androgen synthesis and extending survival in prostate cancer patients.

GS-443902 trisodium (GS-441524 triphosphate trisodium), the active triphosphate metabolite of Remdesivir (GS-5734), serves as a potent inhibitor of viral RNA-dependent RNA-polymerases (RdRp), displaying inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of 1.1 μM for RSV RdRp and 5 μM for HCV RdRp.

Isonicotinic acid, a metabolite of isoniazid and a useful isomer of nicotinic acid, is formed from isoniazid by hydrazinolysis and can be catalyzed by cytochrome P450 enzymes, such as CYP2C.

Ampyrone (4-Aminoantipyrine) is a reagent for glucose determination in the presence of peroxidase and phenol.

Clofibric acid (Chlorofibrinic acid) is an antilipemic agent that is the biologically active metabolite of CLOFIBRATE.

Monobutyl phthalate, the main metabolite of dibutyl phthalate, is an embryotoxin with antiandrogenic properties.

Nicotinamide N-oxide (Nicotinamide 1-oxide) is recognized as an in vivo metabolite of nicotinamide which is a precurser of nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in animals. The enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of nicotinamide N-oxide to nicotinamide in the liver is xanthine oxidase.
