Desethylamiodarone hydrochloride (N-desethylamiodarone hydrochloride) is the primary active metabolite of amiodarone, formed by the CYP3A isozyme. Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic drug that inhibits ATP-sensitive potassium channels with an IC50 of 19.1 μM.
SAICAR is an intermediate of de novo purine nucleotide biosynthesis, activates pyruvate kinase isoform M2 (PKM2) in an isozyme-selective manner (EC50: 0.3 mM).
N-desethyl Brinzolamide is an active metabolite of the carbonic anhydrase (CA) inhibitor brinzolamide .1It inhibits CAII and CAIV activities (IC50s = 1.28 and 128 nM, respectively). 1.Kim, C.-Y., Whittington, D.A., Chang, J.S., et al.Structural aspects of isozyme selectivity in the binding of inhibitors to carbonic anhydrases II and IVJ.

Arachidonoyl Thio-PC is a substrate for many phospholipase A2s (PLA2s) including sPLA2, cPLA2, and iPLA2. Cleavage of the sn-2 fatty acid by PLA2 results in generation of a free thiol which reacts with chromogenic reagents such as DTNB (Ellman's reagent) and DTP to allow quantitation of PLA2 activity. Isozyme-specific cPLA2 activity can be measured by excluding or inhibiting sPLA2 and iPLA2 activities in the assay.
Zonisamide-13C2,15N is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of zonisamide by GC- or LC-MS. Zonisamide is an antiepileptic agent.1 It selectively inhibits the repeated firing of sodium channels (IC50 = 2 μg ml) in mouse embryo spinal cord neurons and inhibits spontaneous channel firing when used at concentrations greater than 10 μg ml.2 In rat cerebral cortex neurons, zonisamide (1-1,000 μM) inhibits T-type calcium channels with a maximum reduction of 60% of the calcium current.3 Zonisamide inhibits H. pylori recombinant carbonic anhydrase (CA) and the human CA isoforms I, II, and V with Ki values of 218, 56, 35, and 21 nM, respectively.4,5 In mice, it has anticonvulsant activity against maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and pentylenetetrazole-induced maximal, but not minimal, seizures (ED50s = 19.6, 9.3, and >500 mg kg, respectively). Zonisamide (40 mg kg, p.o.) prevents MPTP-induced decreases in the levels of dopamine , but not homovanillic acid or dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid , and increases MPTP-induced decreases in the dopamine turnover rate in mouse striatum in a model of Parkinson's disease.6 Formulations containing zonisamide have been used in the treatment of partial seizures in adults with epilepsy. |1.

Chrysophanol-1-O-β-gentiobioside, an anthraquinone glycoside obtained from the seeds of Cassia obtusifolia, exhibits targeted inhibition of hMAO-A isozyme activity with an IC50 value of 96.15 μM.
CP-610431 is a reversible, ATP-uncompetitive inhibitor of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), exhibiting isozyme nonselectivity. It inhibits both ACC1 and ACC2 with IC50 values of approximately 50 nM. CP-610431 offers potential application in metabolic syndrome research.
