Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)


Hydroxytoluic acid is a long-acting derivative of salicylate with antilipidemic properties. It shows fibrinolytic activity in human plasma by activating the fibrinolytic system and has been shown to lower plasma free fatty acid, cholesterol levels, and to raise metabolic oxygen consumption.

INN:racemetirosine [INN]

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)



Racemetirosine is an orally active inhibitor of the enzyme tyrosine 3-monooxygenase, and consequently of the synthesis of catecholamine. At dosages of 600 to 3500mg daily, it is effective in controlling the hypertensive episodes and symptoms of catecholamine excess in phaeochromocytoma during preparation for surgery. Oral Racemetirosine is well absorbed and absorption appears constant in each individual over a wide dosage range. The drug is largely excreted via the kidneys, but extrarenal elimination has not been studied. Case reports on the clinical use of Racemetirosine in phaeochromocytoma indicate that the drug controls hypertension and symptoms of catecholamine excess in most patients during preparation for surgical removal of a tumor. In some cases, the addition of Racemetirosine to phenoxybenzamine plus propranolol has resulted in adequate control of symptoms previously unresponsive to the adrenergic blocking regimen. Drowsiness and sedation have been the most frequently reported side effects of Racemetirosine treatment.

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)


Conditions:

Nisoxetine, 3-(o-methoxyphenoxy)-3-phenyl-N-methyl-propyl-amine, is a most active and selective inhibitor of norepinephrine uptake, which was developed by Eli Lilly as an antidepressant drug. It was shown that nisoxetine dose-dependently reduced acute food intake and the additive effect of it was preserved in obese mice. In addition, was revealed that nisoxetine produced local but not systemic analgesia against cutaneous nociceptive stimuli in rodents. However, this drug has no clinical applications in humans.
Closantel is a synthetic anti parasitic agent which is highly effective against adults and larvae (6 to weeks old) of liver flukes (Fasciola hepatica), and against several important gastrointestinal roundworms (e.g. Bunostomum, Haemonchus, Oesophagostomum, Ostertagia - Teladorsagia, Strongyloides, Trichostrongylus), as well as against screwworms (maggots of Cochliomyia spp and Chrysomya spp), sheep nasal bots (Oestrus ovis), and sheep keds (Melophagus ovinus). The molecular mode of action closantel is not completely elucidated, but closantel decouples the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, which leads to the inhibition of ATP synthesis, this seems to occur through suppression of the activity of succinate dehydrogenase and fumarate reductase, two enzymes involved in this process. Finally this all cause the death of the parasite. Recently it has been discovered that closantel also inhibits chitinase in Onchocerca volvulus, a filarial nematode causing river blindness in humans. Chitinase is an enzyme involved in larval molting. Its inhibition interrupts their development to adult worms. This drug possesses some side effects: hyper acute anaphylactic reactions in cattle; hypersensitivity reactions; overdoses can cause reduced visibility or blindness, anorexia, lack of coordination and general weakness.

INN:setoperone

Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (ACHIRAL)



Setoperone is and antagonist of the brain serotonin 5-HT2 receptor and particular the 5-HT2A isoform. Setoperone is radiolabeled with the radioisotope fluorine-18 and is used in positron emission tomography (PET) in neuroimaging for the study neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and depression.
Enprofylline is a xanthine derivative that shares theophylline's bronchodilator properties. It can be considered a relatively selective, though not potent adenosine A2B receptors antagonist. Enprofylline is used in asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and in the management of cerebrovascular insufficiency, sickle cell disease, and diabetic neuropathy. Long-term enprofylline administration may be associated with the elevation in liver enzyme levels and unpredictable blood levels.
