BAY-677, serving as an inactive control for BAY-678, is distinguished by BAY-678's capabilities as an orally bioavailable, selective, and cell-permeable inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase (HNE), showcasing a high potency with an IC50 of 20 nM[1]. Furthermore, BAY-678 has been publicly nominated as a chemical probe by the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC)[2].
MMP inhibitor I is a peptide inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), MMP-2, and MMP-3 (IC50s = 1.3, 30, and 150 μM, respectively). It is selective for MMP-1, MMP-2, and MMP-3 over the proteases thermolysin, urease, trypsin, α-chymotrypsin, plasmin, and elastase at concentrations up to 4 mM.
Morolic acid and moronic acid have shown sustained antidiabetic and antihyperglycemic action possibly mediated by an insulin sensitization with consequent changes of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, in part mediated by inhibition of 11β-HSD 1. Moro
