Eyeseryl, also known as Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5, humectant or hydroscopic moisturizer which helps reduce eye puffiness, improve skin elasticity as well as overall smoothness.
11-cis Retinal is a chromophore that binds to opsin in the mammalian visual system as an inverse agonist forming the inactive conformation of rhodopsin. When 11-cis retinal absorbs a photon of light, it isomerizes to form all-trans retinal beginning the phototransduction cycle, which is the basis for mammalian vision. A G121L mutation in opsin allows 11-cis retinal to bind as a partial agonist and activate rhodopsin in the absence of light. In a moth model of carotenoid deficiency-induced low visual sensitivity, 11-cis retinal application to compound eyes restored visual sensitivity almost completely.
6-Hydroxybenzbromarone is the major metabolite of Benzbromarone. 6-Hydroxybenzbromarone is a protein Eyes Absent 3 (EYA3) inhibitor (IC50: 21.5 μM). It is an angiogenic agent, has strong inhibitory effects on cell migration, tubulogenesis, and angiogenic
Dalapon is a selective herbicide used to control perennial grasses. The major use of dalapon is on food crops including sugarcane and sugar beets. Its use is no longer authorized in France. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in the
Ibuprofen carboxylic acid is a major metabolite of ibuprofen . It prevents fructose-, cyanate-, and prednisolone-induced inactivation of catalase and fructose- and cyanate-induced inactivation of fumarase when used at a concentration of 2 mM and penetrates into the lens of isolated bovine eyes. Ibuprofen carboxylic acid has been found in bank filtrate and surface water, as well as influent and effluent wastewater, and is considered a micropollutant.
Bimatoprost is an F-series prostaglandin (PG) analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug. Oxidation of the C-15 hydroxyl group and amide hydrolysis of Bimatoprost produces 15-keto-17-phenyl trinor PGF2α. 15-keto-17-phenyl trinor PGF2α is a potential metabolite of bimatoprost when administered to animals. 15-keto PG analogs are potential minor impurities in commercial preparations of their corresponding bulk drug compounds. Although much less potent that the parent compound, 15-keto PGs still retain the ability to produce a small but measurable decrease (1 mm Hg) in the intraocular pressure of normal cynomolgus monkeys when administered at a dose of 1 μg eye. 15-keto Latanoprost (15-keto-17-phenyl-13,14-dihydro trinor PGF2α isopropyl ester) is a miotic in the normal cat eye, causing an 8 mm reduction in pupillary diameter at 5 μg eye. Again, this is not as potent as many other F-type PGs; for example, PGF2α will produce this degree of miosis at a dose of less than 1 μg eye.
PGF2α isopropyl ester is an ester prodrug of PGF2α with enhanced lipid solubility. Due to better membrane penetration, PGF2α isopropyl ester is more suitable than PGF2α or PGF2α tromethamine salt for topical application in studies on intraocular pressure. The ester functionality is readily hydrolyzed in vivo to release the active compound PGF2α. When administered topically to the eyes of cynomolgus monkeys, a 5 μg dose reduces intraocular pressure by 68% after the fourth day of treatment.
Tridemorph is a sterol biosynthetic inhibitor. It is a fungicide used to control Erysiphe graminis. It was developed by BASF in the 1960s who use the trade name Calixin. The World Health Organization has categorized it as a Class II moderately hazardous pesticide because it is believed harmful if swallowed and can cause irritation to skin and eyes.
