Alagebrium Chloride, also known as ALT711, is an advanced glycation end product (AGE) inhibitor. Endothelial cell (EC) proliferation is increased for all groups receiving Alagebrium (ALT-711), particularly when seeded on matrix from the AAo of obese (ZO) and diabetic (ZD) rats. Treatment with Alagebrium in diabetic RAGE apoE double-KO mice is associated with a further reduction in glomerular collagen IV levels, approaching levels observed in control mice. Alagebrium increases blood flow (BF) in ZO rats but reduces distal vascular resistance in ZD rats. A decrease in neointimal hyperplasia (NH) intrastrut thickness as a function of local radius is found in all groups with Alagebrium treatment. A significant increase in TGF-β expression is also found in the AAo of ZL rats treated with Alagebrium. It was the first drug candidate to be clinically tested for the purpose of breaking the crosslinks caused by advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), thereby reversing one of the main mechanisms of aging. Through this effect Alagebrium is designed to reverse the stiffening of blood vessel walls that contributes to hypertension and cardiovascular disease, as well as many other forms of degradation associated with protein crosslinking. Alagebrium has proven effective in reducing systolic blood pressure and providing therapeutic benefit for patients with diastolic.

| Gentisuric Acid
Gentisuric Acid is a metabolite of Aspirin, it is a substrate of α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM). Gentisuric acid prevents DNA-damage by Mitomycin C. |
| 5α-Dihydroprogesterone
5α-Dihydroprogesterone (5a-Pregnane-3,20-dione) is the endogenous progesterone metabolite. 5α-Dihydroprogesterone (5a-Pregnane-3,20-dione) decreases cell-substrate attachment, adhesion plaques, vinculin expression, and polymerizes F-actin in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. |
| Adenosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate sodium
Adenosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate sodium serves as an extracellular source of adenosine. The release of extracellular 2′,3′-cAMP occurs in response to injury. 2′,3′-cAMP may be used to study the distribution and specificity of its degrading enzymes in the context of unique biological activities. 2′,3′-cAMP may also be used to study apoptosis induced at the level of mitochondrial permeability transition pores. 2′,3′-cAMP is converted into 2′-AMP and 3′-AMP which inhibit proliferation of preglomerular vascular smooth muscle cells and glomerular mesangial cells via A2B receptors. |
| 6α-Hydroxy Paclitaxel
6α-Hydroxy Paclitaxel is a primary metabolite of Paclitaxel. 6α-Hydroxy Paclitaxel (6-Hydroxytaxol) retains a time-dependent effect on organic anion-transporting polypeptides 1B1/SLCO1B1 (OATP1B1) with similar inhibition potency to Paclitaxel, whereas it no longer showed time-dependent inhibition of OATP1B3. |
| Casein (from bovine milk)
Casein is a phosphorus-containing complex protein with α-casein and β-casein as its main components. Casein is an orally active phosphoprotein that can be separated into various electrophoretic components, such as α2-Casein, κ-Casein, β-casein, and γ-casein. Casein can be used in biochemical research, to formulate biological culture media, and as a thickener, emulsifier and stabiliser. |
