Iroxanadine (BRX-005) is a Novel small molecule MAPK p38 inhibitor that induces phosphorylation of p38 SAPK and induces concentration-dependent relaxation in guinea pig pulmonary artery preparations precontracted with phenylephrine.13480-84-5

Dalcotidine (KU 1257) is a novel histamine H2 receptor antagonist with histamine H9 receptor antagonistic activity and antisecretory effects.The Ki value for binding to guinea pig cerebral cortex was 0.040 The KB value for antagonism of histamine-induced positive chronotropic responses in the right atrium of isolate guinea pigs was 0.041.Dalcotidine improves the quality of ulcer healing, and may contribute to a reduction in ulcer recurrence and relapse rates.

Litoxetine HCl is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and mixed 5-hydroxytryptamine antagonist used in the treatment of urinary incontinence. Litoxetine HCl in the absence of antimuscarinic concentrations without antimuscarinic properties (10 nM-1 microM) caused concentration-dependent relaxation of isolated oesophageal muscle mucosa in rats, reducing carbachol tone by up to 37%. Higher concentrations of Litoxetine HCl (3 microM-300 microM) were associated with significant relaxation up to abolition of carbachol tone. The antiarrhythmic activity of Litoxetine HCl, previously demonstrated in the isolated guinea pig intestine, was exerted in the isolated rat oesophageal muscle mucosa at concentrations greater than 1 microM. The 5-HT-releasing effect of Litoxetine HCl could explain the potency of Litoxetine HCl on 5-HT-induced relaxation in untreated rat tissue, which was reversed by pCPA treatment.

Pirodomast is a thromboxane A (TXA2) synthase inhibitor. Pirodomast inhibits leukotriene (LT) D4, C4, E4 formation and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) activity, but is weakly or ineffectively antagonistic to guinea pig bronchospasm induced by histamine, methacholine, serotonin, LTC4, or platelet-activating factor. Pirodomast is a potential antiallergic compound. Pirodomast had only weak relaxant activity on guinea pig trachea in vitro. Pirodomast is a potential antiallergic compound that inhibits the protein hydrolyzing activity of trypsin in vitro, prevents antigen-induced immediate and late asthmatic responses in allergic sheep in vivo, and inhibits antigen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness to histamine and carbachol in allergic sheep.

Saterinone is a potent and selective phosphodiesterase III inhibitor and a potent antagonist of the vascular α-1-adrenoceptor. Saterinone has vasodilatory properties and can be used in the acute treatment of chronic heart failure.

1. Methyl eugenol (4-allylveratrole) is a natural constituent of the essential oils of a number of plants widely used in foodstuffs as flavouring agents, in view of the carcinogenic potential of ME, the need to check its presence in food products with effective analytical methods. 2. Methyleugenol has insecticidal properties. 3. Methyleugenol can inhibit the production of nitric oxide and decreased the protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, it down-regulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the ischemic brain as well as in immunostimulated mixed glial cells; indicates that methyleugenol could be useful for the treatment of ischemia inflammation-related diseases. 4. Methyleugenol has cytotoxicity and genotoxicity. 5. Intravenous (i.v.) treatment with methyleugenol (ME) in either anesthetized or conscious rats elicits hypotension, an effect that seems related to an active vascular relaxation rather than withdrawal of sympathetic tone. 6. Methyleugenol has antinociceptive effect on the second phase of formalin-induced pain, may be due to the inhibition of N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor-mediated hyperalgesia via GABA(A) receptors. 7. Methyleugenol has elaxant and antispasmodic actions on guinea-pig isolated ileum.
