Plevitrexed is taken up via the α-folate receptor as well as the reduced folate carrier. Plevitrexed is an orally active and effective thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor (Ki: 0.44 nM). Plevitrexed is used for gastric cancer in clinical.
ONX 0801 (BGC 945) trisodium is a targeted thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor specifically designed to act against tumors overexpressing the α-folate receptor.
Aflatoxin B2-13C17(AFB2-13C17) is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of AFB2by GC- or LC-MS. AFB2is a mycotoxin that has been found inA. terricola.1It induces hepatic autophagy and apoptosis in broiler chickens when administered at doses of 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 mg kg.2AFB2(0.5 and 1 mg animal) also induces parenchymal cell hyperplasia in rats.3 1.Moubasher, A.H., el-Kady, I.A., and Shoriet, A.Toxigenic Aspergilli isolated from different sources in EgyptAnn.

Flumequine-13C3is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of flumequine by GC- or LC-MS. Flumequine is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic.1It is active againstS. aureus, S. pyogenes, B. subtilis, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. faecalis, andK. pneumoniae(MICs = 1-100 μg ml). Flumequine is also active against field isolates of B. hyodysenteriae (MICs = 6.25-200 μg ml).2It inhibits DNA gyrase, disrupting supercoiling of bacterial DNA to block transcription and replication.3In vivo, flumequine (50 mg kg) increases survival in rat models ofP. vulgaris-induced urinary tract infection andP. mirabilis-induced prostatitis.1Formulations containing flumequine have been used in the treatment of urinary tract infections in veterinary medicine. 1.Rohlfing, S.R., Gerster, J.R., and Kvam, D.C.Bioevaluation of the antibacterial flumequine for urinary tract useAntimicrob.

Rasagiline-13C3is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of rasagiline by GC- or LC-MS. Rasagiline is an inhibitor of monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B; IC50= 4.43 nM for the rat brain enzyme).1It is selective for MAO-B over MAO-A (IC50= 412 nM for the rat brain enzyme). It inhibits serum and NGF withdrawal-induced apoptosis of PC12 cells when used at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 100 μM.2Rasagiline inhibits rat brain MAO-Bin vivo(ED50= 0.1 mg kg).1It reduces cerebral edema in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury.2Rasagiline (0.1 mg kg) reduces cortical and hippocampal levels of full-length and soluble amyloid precursor protein (APP) in rats and mice. It also reduces α-synuclein-induced substantia nigral neuron loss and improves motor dysfunction in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease.3Formulations containing rasagiline have been used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. 1.Youdim, M.B.H., Gross, A., and Finberg, J.P.Rasagiline [N-propargyl-1R(+)-aminoindan], a selective and potent inhibitor of mitochondrial monoamine oxidase BBrit.

Zanamivir-13C,15N2is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of zanamivir by GC- or LC-MS. Zanamivir is a sialic acid analog that inhibits neuraminidase release of newly replicated influenza virus particles.1It has been shown to selectively inhibit the growth of influenza A and B viruses in plaque reduction assays with IC50values ranging from 5 to 14 nM and to directly inhibit influenza A and B virus neuraminidases with IC50values ranging from 0.6 to 7.9 nMin vitro. Intranasal zanamivir administration at 0.4 mg kg twice daily reduces mortality and viral titers in lung homogenates of mice infected with influenza. 1.Elliott, M.Zanamivir: From drug design to the clinicPhilos.
