Azalanstat HCl is an anti-obesity drug acting as a lanosterol 14α-demethylase inhibitor. Azalanstat HCl has been shown to inhibit cholesterol synthesis in HepG2 cells, human fibroblasts, hamster hepatocytes and hamster liver, by inhibiting the cytochrome P450 enzyme lanosterol 14 alpha-demethylase. When administered orally to hamsters fed regular chow, RS-21607 (50 mg kg day) lowered serum cholesterol in a dose-dependent manner (ED50 = 62 mg kg) in a period of 1 week. It preferentially lowered low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apo B relative to high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apo A-1.

Tebuconazole-d9 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of tebuconazole by GC- or LC-MS. Tebuconazole is a triazole fungicide that is active against both seed and foliar fungi. It inhibits 14α-demethylase isolated from U. maydis and S. bicolor with IC50 values of 0.05 and 0.16 nM, respectively. It inhibits the androgenic effect of the androgen receptor agonist DHT (IC20 = 2.89 µM) and is cytotoxic (EC20 = 38.9 µM) in an MDA-kb2 assay. Tebuconazole (50 and 100 mg kg per day) administered during gestation reduces testosterone levels and increases testicular levels of progesterone and 17α-hydroxyprogesterone in male rat fetuses. It has a feminizing effect on male pups and a virializing effect on female pups. When administered to rats gestationally through postnatal day 42, tebuconazole (20 and 60 mg kg per day) leads to cell death of pyramidal cells in the CA3-4 region of the hippocampus and layer V of the cortex concomitant with impairment in learning......
