disulfiram

Disulfiram (TETD) is an inhibitor of the acetaldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH, inhibiting hALDH1 and hALDH2 (IC50=0.15 1.45 μM) with specificity. Disulfiram is acutely sensitized to alcohol and also inhibits GSDMD pore formation.

Syrosingopine has selective depleting effect on brain amines is potentiated by combined treatment with disulfiram or fusaric acid, a dopamine beta-hydroxylase inhibitor.

2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)ethan-1-ol (3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)indole) is a metabolite formed in the liver after disulfiram treatment that induces sleep in humans. It is also a secondary product of alcoholic fermentation.

EWP 815 is a disulfiram analogue that functions as a powerful inhibitor of Ins(1,4) P 2 phosphatase, Ins(1,4,5) P 3 5-phosphatase, and dopamine β-hydroxylase activity [1] [2].

MeDTC (S-Methyl-N,N-diethylthiocarbamate Sulfone), a metabolite of Disulfiram, serves as a potent and irreversible inhibitor of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) [1].

Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate is an active metabolite of the aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor disulfiram .1It is produced by methylation of the disulfiram metabolite diethyldithiocarbamate in mouse liver microsomes.2Methyl diethyldithiocarbamate inhibits liver low Kmaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in rats (ID50= 15.5 mg/kg).1It decreases mean arterial pressure (MAP) and increases heart rate during ethanol challenge in rats when administered at a dose of 20.6 mg/kg. 1.Hart, B.W., Yourick, J.J., and Faiman, M.D.S-methyl-N,N-diethylthiolcarbamate: A disulfiram metabolite and potent rat liver mitochondrial low Km aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitorAlcohol7(2)165-169(1990) 2.Gessner, T., and Jakubowski, M.Diethyldithiocarbamic acid methyl ester.
