Orellanine is a nephrotoxic compound extracted from the mushroom Cortinarius orellanus. Orellanine strongly inhibits the synthesis of macromolecules (Proteins, RNA and DNA) in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells and in rat liver mitochondria.

(L)-Sodium lactate (Sodium L-Lactate) is produced from pyruvate by the enzyme Lactate Dehydrogenase. Lactate production occurs during anaerobic glycolysis or in proliferatively active cells. L-Lactic Acid occurs in small quantities in the blood and muscle fluid of man and animals. The lactic acid concentration increases in muscle and blood after vigorous activity. L-Lactic acid is also present in liver, kidney, thymus gland, human amniotic fluid, and other organs and body fluids.

Cycloheximide (Naramycin A) is a natural product that reversibly inhibits translation elongation, is an antimitotic compound, and is an inhibitor of DNA and protein synthesis.

Bis-T-23 is a promoter of actin-dependent dynamin oligomerization, an HIV-I integrase inhibitor, and a Telstar derivative. Bis-T-23 promotes actin-dependent dynamin oligomerization. Bis-T-23 can be used in studies of HIV and chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Avosentan(Ro 67-0565; SPP-301) is a potent endothelin receptor (ETA) antagonist with strong inhibitory effects on endothelin-1-induced contraction and may have protective effects against chronic kidney disease. [2]

APX-115 (Ewha-18278) (Ewha-18278) is a potent, orally active pan NADPH oxidase (Nox) inhibitor (Kis: 1.08 μM, 0.57 μM, and 0.63 μM for Nox1, Nox2, and Nox4). APX-115 effectively prevents kidney injury.

BLU2864 is an orally active, highly selective, ATP-competitive PRKACA inhibitor with an IC50 of 0.3 nM, exhibiting anti-tumor activity and potential applications in cancer and polycystic kidney disease research [1] [2].

Pentamidine dihydrochloride (MP-601205 dihydrochloride) is an aromatic diamidine agent effective against various microorganisms, including protozoa (Trypanosoma brucei, Leishmania spp., and Babesia spp.) and fungi (Pneumocystis jirovecii). It is a potent and selective inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatases and phosphatase of regenerating liver. Pentamidine dihydrochloride inhibits the parasite Leishmania infantum with an IC50 of 2.5 μM.

Zeniplatin (Zeniplatinum) is a new cisplatin complex with anticancer activity for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and kidney cancer.

Cdc7-IN-7c (Cdc7 inhibitor-7c) has antitumor activity and has inhibitory effect on liver cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer, brain cancer and cervical cancer.

6-Acryloyloxyhexyl phosphater (PA21) is a novel phosphate-binding agent, which is an iron-based reagent, and can be used for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease.

5-Hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin (HD-003) is an antioxidant potentially for the treatment of renal failure. A creatinine metabolite, 5-Hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin , a hydroxyl radical scavenger, has previously been shown to confer renoprotection by inhibiting the progression of chronic kidney disease in rats. 5-Hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin is a novel anti-oxidant drug completely suppressed the expression of B2-kinin receptors (B2KR) in response to high glucose (25 mM) stimulation in VSMC and was also shown to attenuate the effects of BK on VSMC remodeling. 5-Hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin inhibited the BK-induced increase in MAPK phosphorylation and attenuated the increase in connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) protein levels in VSMC. These findings suggest that 5-Hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin may confer vascular protection against high glucose concentrations and BK-stimulation to ameliorate vascular injury and remodeling through its anti-oxidant properties.

Calcium polystyrene sulfonate (Poly(styrenesulfonic acid) calcium salt) is an ion-exchange resin. Calcium polystyrene sulfonate reduces blood levels of potassium and can be used for research on the treatment of hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Sodium Glucoheptonate is used as a kit for Tc-99m radiolabeling, as well as for metal cleaning, mercerizing, paint stripping and aluminum etching. Among other things, Tc-99m glucoheptonate is a kidney and brain imaging agent that can be used to detect brain tumors.

Aflatoxin Total in cotton seed (Standard) is a reference material for the determination of total aflatoxins (including B1, B2, G1 and G2) in food and feed, which are secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. Aflatoxins are highly toxic, extremely harmful to organs such as liver and kidney, and are class I carcinogens.

Atracurium besylate (51W89) is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent with short duration of action. Its lack of significant cardiovascular effects and its lack of dependence on good kidney function for elimination provide clinical advantage over alternate non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents.

Articaine hydrochloride (Hoe-045), a thiophene-containing local anesthetic, is pharmacologically similar to mepivacaine.

Irbesartan (SR-47436) is an Angiotensin 2 Receptor Blocker whose mechanism of action involves antagonizing the Angiotensin 2 Receptor.

Dapagliflozin ((2S)-1,2-propanediol, hydrate) (BMS-512148 (2S)-1,2-propanediol, hydrate) is a selective, orally active inhibitor of the renal sodium-glucose co-transporter type 2 (SGLT2), in development for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It inhibits SGLT2, responsible for at least 90% of glucose reabsorption in the kidney.

H-Abu-OH (L-α-amino-n-Butyric acid) , also known as (S)-2-aminobutanoic acid, homoalanine, 2-AABA, ethylglycine, or L-butyrine, is a member of the class of compounds known as L-alpha-amino acids. H-Abu-OH is a non-proteogenic amino acid that can be found in the human kidney, in liver tissues, and in most biofluids or excreta (e.g. feces, breast milk, urine, and blood). Within the cell, H-Abu-OH is primarily located in the cytoplasm. H-Abu-OH is biosynthesized by transaminating oxobutyrate, a metabolite in isoleucine biosynthesis. As a non-proteogenic amino acid, H-Abu-OH can be used by nonribosomal peptide synthases.
