C16 Phytoceramide (t18:0/16:0) is a phytoceramide, which is a family of sphingolipids found in the intestine, kidney, and extracellular spaces of the stratum corneum of the mammalian epidermis. C16 Phytoceramide (t18:0/16:0) is composed of a phytosphingosine backbone amine-linked to a C16 fatty acid chain. The levels of C16 phytoceramide (t18:0/16:0) increase following heat stress in S. cerevisiae. It has been used with other ceramides to create stratum corneum substitutes to study percutaneous penetration and psoriasis in vitro.

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.

PZ-1922 (Compound 16), able to cross the blood-brain barrier, is a dual antagonist for 5-HT6R and 5-HT3R with K i values of 17 nM and 0.45 nM, respectively. It also reversibly inhibits MAO-B with a pIC50 of 8.93.

Antitrypanosomal agent 16 functions as a potent trypanocide, exhibiting an inhibitory concentration 50 (IC50) of 0.04μM against the T. congolense strain IL3000 [1].

EPI-X4, an endogenous peptide fragment of human serum albumin (amino acids 408-423), serves as an antagonist to the chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4). It effectively prevents calcium mobilization and receptor internalization triggered by chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) in HEK293 cells with CXCR4 expression, at concentrations between 0.8 and 1,000 µM. Moreover, EPI-X4 hampers the CXCL12-driven migration of both Jurkat T cells and human CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells. In an acute allergic airway hypereosinophilia mouse model, EPI-X4 intrinsically decreases Cxcr4-dependent inflammatory cell infiltration in airways at a dose of 16 µmol/kg. Additionally, increased urinary EPI-X4 levels, inversely related to glomerular filtration rate (GFR), are observed in chronic kidney disease patients, indicating its potential biomarker role.

It is selective for CXCR3 over a panel of 14 human G protein-coupled receptors at 10 μM. CXCR3 antagonist 6c inhibits CXCR3-mediated migration of isolated human T cells (IC50= ~100 nM). 1.Cole, A.G., Stroke, I.L., Brescia, M.-R., et al.Identification and initial evaluation of 4-N-aryl-[1,4]diazepane ureas as potent CXCR3 antagonistsBioorg.

C4 Ceramide is a bioactive sphingolipid and cell-permeable analog of naturally occurring ceramides. [1] [2] [3] It inhibits IL-4 production by 16% in EL4 T cells stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate when used at a concentration of 10 μM. [1] C4 Ceramide is cytotoxic to SK-BR-3 and MCF-7/Adr breast cancer cells (IC50s = 15.9 and 19.9 μM, respectively). [2] C4 Ceramide also increases maturation and stability of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) proteins bearing the F508 deletion (F508del) mutation, enhances cAMP-activated chloride secretion, and suppresses secretion of IL-8 in primary epithelial cells isolated from patients with cystic fibrosis.[3]

Carbetimer is a partially imidized copolymer of ethylene & maleic anhydride with average MW approx 1,200 daltons; capable of specific stimulation of immune response. Carbetimer is a low molecular weight polymer derived from ethylene and maleic anhydride with potent antineoplastic activity. Preclinical studies have shown antitumor effects against many tumor cell lines including B 16 melanoma. Its antitumor actions are felt to include both reduction of uridine and cytidine nucleoside triphosphate as well as the diminution of pyrimidine salvage by inhibiting uridine, cytidine, and thymidine kinase. Besides direct antiproliferative effects, Carbetimer could act through immunomodulation, as suggested by the induction of cytotoxic T-cells in mice and the discordant in vitro and in vivo activities against the Lewis lung carcinoma model.

Donecopride is a partial agonist of the serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtype 5-HT4E(Ki= 8.5 nM) and an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; IC50= 16 nM).1It is selective for AChE over butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; IC50= 3,530 nM) but does bind to 5-HT2Band sigma-2 (σ2) receptors (Ki= 1.6 nM for both) in a panel of 42 neurotransmitter receptors and transporters. Donecopride induces release of soluble amyloid precursor protein-α (sAPP-α) in COS-7 cells transiently expressing 5-HT4with an EC50value of 11.3 nM. Oral administration of donecopride (1 mg/kg) reduces brain soluble and insoluble amyloid-β (1-42) levels and increases the time spent exploring the novel object in the novel object recognition (NOR) test in the 5XFAD transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. Donecopride (3 mg/kg, p.o.) prevents a reduction in spontaneous alternation behavior induced by intracerebroventricular administration of soluble Aβ42 (sAβ42) in the Y-maze in mice.2 1.Lecoutey, C., Hedou, D., Freret, T., et al.Design of donecopride, a dual serotonin subtype 4 receptor agonist/acetylcholinesterase inhibitor with potential interest for Alzheimer's disease treatmentProc.
