peroxisomes

Mildronate (Meldonium) is an inhibitor of biosynthesis of L-carnitine by gamma-butyrobetaine (GBB) hydroxylase and as a competitive inhibitor of renal carnitine reabsorption.

Ciliobrevin D is a AAA+ ATPase motor cytoplasmic dynein inhibitor. Ciliobrevin D inhibits Hedgehog (Hh) signaling and primary cilia formation and it also inhibits dynein-dependent microtubule gliding and ATPase activity in vitro.

Methylguanidine (MG) is a guanidine compound deriving from protein catabolism. It is also a product of putrefaction. Methylguanidine is a suspected uraemic toxin that accumulates in renal failure, however it also exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. Methyl

LS2265, a fenofibrate derivative with a taurine modification, effectively induces the proliferation of peroxisomes in rat liver cells.

Alcohol oxidase, a key enzyme in the methanol utilization pathway, is derived from yeast peroxisomes.
