HIDE SMILES / InChI
Tyropanic acid and its salt sodium tyropanoate are radiocontrast agents used in cholecystography (X-ray diagnosis of gallstones). Tyropanic acid is sold under the trade names Bilopaque, Lumopaque, Tyropaque, and Bilopac. The molecule contains three heavy iodine atoms which obstruct X-rays in the same way as the calcium in bones to produce a visible image. After injection it is rapidly excreted into the bile.

Originator

Curator's Comment: Tyropanic acid was first synthesized in1962 as a modification of an earlier cholecystographic agent, iopanoic acid, in an effort to decrease its toxicity

Sample Use Guides

Human biochemical studies indicated that after oral ingestion of 4.5 g of tyropanoate sodium, tyropanoate sodium was rapidly absorbed from the intestinal tract and a peak serum iodine level of 330-460 mg/liter could be reached in 1-4 h
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: Tyropanic acid inhibits the binding of L-thyroxine to plasma membranes of rat hepatocytes. Specific binding of T4 (Ka, 1.01 X 10(8) M) was confirmed by displacement of labeled T4 by unlabeled hormone (10(-10)-10(-5) M).
At 5-mM concentrations of Tyropanic acid, the Ka for T4 declined to 5.62 X 10(7) M
