Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate is an orally active L-type calcium channel blocker and MMP-9 modulator with high permeability and retention properties. Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate significantly enhances plaque stability and improves lipid profiles by reducing blood pressure, decreasing systolic blood pressure variability, and inhibiting MMP-9 expression in atherosclerotic plaques. Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate not only alleviates cardiac and aortic hypertrophy and prevents renal atrophy, but also produces synergistic effects in blood pressure reduction and organ protection when combined with bisoprolol (HY-129029). Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate exerts no significant inhibitory effect on abdominal aortic intimal hyperplasia. When excessively accumulated in the epidermis, Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate may induce changes in keratin structure, impair the skin barrier and trigger inflammation; long-term use further exacerbates skin irritation caused by local administration. Levamlodipine besylate Hemipentahydrate can be used in research related to hypertension and atherosclerosis .

5-HT Receptor

Research Areas:  

Neurological Disease

Xylamidine is a peripheral 5-HT receptor antagonist used to investigate possible peripheral appetite suppressant effects of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and fenfluramine. In a 1-hour food intake test, xylamidine attenuated the decrease in food intake induced by 5-HT and 5-HTP, but had no effect on fenfluramine, suggesting that the appetite suppressant effect of 5-HTP is mediated in part through peripheral 5-HT receptors. Microstructural analysis revealed that 5-HTP and fenfluramine induced a decrease in food intake rate and a reduction in feeding batch size. Xylamidine reversed the effects of 5-HTP on food intake rate and induced a slight increase in feeding batch size itself, thus, the peripheral effect of 5-HTP appears to be to slow food intake rate. No effect of xylamidine on fenfluramine-induced changes in feeding was observed. The results suggest that the appetite suppressant effects of 5-HTP and fenfluramine are differentiated based on the peripheral effects of 5-HTP. The peripheral effects of 5-HTP are distinct from the previously reported 5-HT-induced decreases in feeding batch size and duration. Possible mechanisms underlying the differences in peripheral effects of 5-HT and 5-HTP are discussed.

1,827 compounds

Glutamine is an important metabolic fuel that helps rapidly proliferating cells meet the increased demand for ATP, biosynthetic precursors, and reducing agents. Glutamine Metabolism pathway involves the initial deamination of glutamine by glutaminase(GLS), yielding glutamate and ammonia. Glutamate is converted to the TCA cycle intermediate α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) by either glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) or by the alanine or aspartate transaminases (TAs), to produce both ATP and anabolic carbons for the synthesis of amino acids, nucleotides and lipids. During periods of hypoxia or mitochondrial dysfunction, α-KG can be converted to citrate in a reductive carboxylation reaction catalyzed by IDH2. The newly formed citrate exits the mitochondria where it is used to synthesize fatty acids and amino acids and produce the reducing agent, NADPH.

Cancer cells display an altered metabolic circuitry that is directly regulated by oncogenic mutations and loss of tumor suppressors. Mounting evidence indicates that altered glutamine metabolism in cancer cells has critical roles in supporting macromolecule biosynthesis, regulating signaling pathways, and maintaining redox homeostasis, all of which contribute to cancer cell proliferation and survival. Thus, intervention in glutamine metabolic processes could provide novel approaches to improve cancer treatment.

MCE owns a unique collection of 1,827 compounds targeting the mainly proteins and enzymes involved in glutamine metabolism pathway. Glutamine Metabolism compound library is a useful tool for intervention in glutamine metabolic processes.
