Prolyl Endopeptidase Inhibitor 2 (Compound 8), a proline endopeptidase (PEP) inhibitor, exhibits an IC50 value of 31.11 μM. This compound is applicable in research related to neurodegenerative diseases [1].

Prolyl Endopeptidase is highly active in the brain and other tissues, where it degrades peptides containing proline, such as Substance P, neuropeptide Y, gonadotropin-releasing hormone, thyrotropin-releasing hormone, bradykinin, and angiotensin II. This enzyme is utilized in researching neuropsychiatric disorders including stress disorders, depression, and schizophrenia.

Candoxatril (UK 79300) is an orally active neutral peptide endonuclease (NEP, EC 3.4.24.11) inhibitor that improves exercise capacity in patients with chronic heart failure undergoing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition.

Salidroside is a bioactive phenolic glycoside compound isolated from Rhodiola rosea and is a prolyl endopeptidase inhibitor. Salidroside can alleviate cachexia symptoms in a tumor cachexia mouse model by activating mTOR signaling and protect dopaminergic neurons by enhancing PINK1 Parkin-mediated mitochondrial autophagy. Salidroside can also inhibit the growth of cancer cells by regulating the CDK4-cyclin D1 pathway to block the G1 phase and or regulating the Cdc2-cyclin B1 pathway to block the G2 phase.

Lysostaphin is a potent antistaphylococcal compound that exhibits enzymatic activity through three distinct enzymes: glycylglycine endopeptidase, endo-β-N-acetyl glucosamidase, and N-acetyl muramyl-L-alanine amidase.

NEP-IN-1 is an inhibitor of neutral endopeptidase (NEP, IC50 = 2 nM) and can be used in studies about female sexual arousal disorders.

RR-11a analog (aza-peptide Michael acceptor, 7a) is an inhibitor of asparaginyl endopeptidase with IC50s of 4.5 nM, 4.5 nM and 31 nM for AE1 in Trichomonas Vaginalis, AE in Ixodes ricinus and AE in Schistosoma mansoni, respectively.

(Rac)-Daglutril (SLV 306 acetic acid) is the racemate form of Daglutril. Daglutril is an orally active, mixed neutral endopeptidase endothelin converting enzyme inhibitor under development for the treatment of essential hypertension and congestive heart failure.

Desonide (Prednacinolone) is a synthetic glucocorticosteroid for topical use, with anti-inflammatory activity. Desonide binds to glucocorticoid receptors in the cytoplasm, and the ligand-receptor complex is translocated as a homodimer into the nucleus, where transcription activation via glucocorticoid response elements within glucocorticoid-responsive genes occur. This agent induces transcription of genes coding for anti-inflammatory proteins, including lipocortin-1, interleukin-10, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and neutral endopeptidase. Increased synthesis of lipocortin-1 has an inhibitory effect on phospholipase A2, which in turn inhibits the release of arachidonic acid, thereby controlling the biosynthesis of potent mediators of inflammation such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.

Racecadotril (Acetorphan) has been investigated for the basic science and treatment of Diarrhea, Acute Diarrhea, and Acute Gastroenteritis.

Sacubitril Valsartan (LCZ696) is an orally bioavailable, dual angiotensin II receptor and neprilysin inhibitor for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

Baicalin (Baicalein 7-O-β-D-glucuronide) is a prolyl endopeptidase inhibitor isolated from scutellaria baicalensis, with antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-HIV properties.

Baicalein (5,6,7-Trihydroxyflavone) is a xanthine oxidase inhibitor.

N-Ethylmaleimide (NEM) is a reagent for alkylation of free sulfhydryl groups, a cysteine protease inhibitor used in experimental biochemistry. N-Ethylmaleimide is also a deubiquitinating enzyme inhibitor that specifically inhibits phosphate transport in mitochondria.

Sacubitril hemicalcium salt (AHU377 calcium salt) is a potent NEP inhibitor with an IC50 of 5 nM. Sacubitril hemicalcium salt is a component of the heart failure medicine LCZ696. Sacubitril hemicalcium salt is a prodrug of LBQ657, which is an inhibitor of the zinc metallopeptidase neprilysin. Neprilysin degrades a variety of vasoactive peptides such as atrial and brain natriuretic peptide, bradykinin, adrenomedullin, and endothelin-1. Inhibition of neprilysin leads to an increased level of these peptides and, thus, antihypertensive effects. Formulations containing AHU377 in combination with the angiotensin II receptor antagonist valsartan are used to treat hypertension and heart failure.

Sacubitril (AHU-377) is a potent NEP inhibitor with an IC50 of 5 nM and is a component of the heart failure medicine LCZ696.

LHW090-A7 is an neutral endopeptidase (NEP) inhibitor, and an enzyme responsible for the metabolic inactivation of enkephalins.

Y-29794 Tosylate (Y-29794) is an orally active, effective, and specific non-peptide-prolyl endopeptidase (PPCE) inhibitor.

KYP-2047 is a very potent, selective Prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) inhibitor.

Sar-[D-Phe8]-des-Arg9-Bradykinin acetate is a potent and selective bradykinin B1 receptor agonist (EC50 = 9.02 nM in rabbit aorta) that is resistant to aminopeptidase, kininase I and II (ACE) and neutral endopeptidase cleavage. Exhibits hypotensive and angiogenic activity in vivo.
