guaifenesin

Guaifenesin (Guaiphenesin) 是一种祛痰剂，来自于 Guajacum officinale Linné 木材中。它可以增加痰液体积和降低其粘度，缓解咳嗽不适，促进有效的咳嗽。

Guaifenesin-d3 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of guaifenesin by GC- or LC-MS. Guaifenesin is an expectorant. It inhibits production of mucin 5AC (MUC5AC), reduces mucus viscosity and elasticity, and increases the mucociliary transport rate of endogenous particles in primary human tracheobronchial epithelial cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Guaifenesin increases phenol red secretion, a marker of expectorant activity, in rats.3 Formulations containing guaifenesin have been used as expectorants in the treatment of the common cold and chronic bronchitis.

Glimepiride urethane is a third generation sulfonylurea compound, which increases the release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells. In addition, glimepiride increases the activity of intracellular insulin receptors. Glimepiride increases osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, which is thought to be related to its ability to activate the PI3K and Akt pathway. Furthermore, Glimepiride enhances intrinsic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ activity. Glimepiride also increases protein expression of glucose transports 1 and 4, and is a potent KIR channel blocker.
