4’-hydroxy Trazodone is a metabolite of the antidepressant and sedative trazodone.1It is an inhibitor of organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3; Ki= 16.9 μM) and is selective for OAT3 over OAT1 (Ki= >200 μM).2 1.Yamato, C., Takahashi, T., Fujita, T., et al.Studies on metabolism of trazodone, II.

Indoxyl sulfate-d5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of indoxyl sulfate by GC- or LC-MS. Indoxyl sulfate is a uremic toxin and a metabolite of tryptophan. It is formed via sulfation of indole, an intermediate generated from tryptophan by intestinal bacteria, by the sulfotransferase (SULT) isoform 1A1 variant 2 (SULT1A1*2) in the liver. Indoxyl sulfate activates the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in HepG2 40 6 hepatoma cells (EC50 = 12.1 nM in a reporter assay). It also inhibits the organic anion transporter (OAT) isoforms OAT1 and OAT3 (Kis = 34.2 and 74.4 µM, respectively for the rat transporters) in S2 proximal tubule cells. Indoxyl sulfate (0.2 and 1 mM) increases superoxide anion and nitric oxide levels in isolated human mononuclear blood cells. It increases serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in the 5 6 nephrectomized rat model of chronic renal failure when administered at a dose of 50 mg kg.
