cis-Dosulepin is a stereoisomer of Dothiepin (trade name Prothiaden, Dothep, Thaden, and Dopress; Dosulepin (INN, BAN) a tricyclic antidepressant that is used in several European and South Asian countries, as well as Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand. Dosulepin is used for the treatment of the major depressive disorder and neuropathic pain. Dosulepin is only Therapeutic Goods Administration and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency approved for the treatment of the major depressive disorder. Dothiepin is not used in the United States. The central action of cis-dosulepin was compared with that of its antidepressant stereoisomer trans-dosulepin, cis-dosulepin exerted weaker anti-reserpine, anti-tetrabenazine, and 3H-5-HT (serotonin) uptake inhibiting actions than trans-dosulepin, but cis-dosulepin's inhibition of 3H-dopamine and 3H-norepinephrine uptake was slightly more potent than that of trans-dosulepin. On the other hand, cis-dosulepin exhibited extremely potent anticholinergic action in oxotremorine induced tremor, isolated ileum and the 3H-quinuclidinyl benzilate binding test. It also showed potent apomorphine enhancing the action and shortened the period of immobility in the forced swimming test in animals.

Phosphocreatine (creatine phosphate, PCr, PC) is the phosphorylated form of endogenous creatine that serves as a rapidly mobilizable reserve of high-energy phosphates in skeletal muscle and the brain of vertebrates. Phosphocreatine is a key component in the intracellular system of energy buffering and transports from the site of energy production to the site of energy utilization to ensure that supply meets the high and dynamic demands of the heart. Phosphocreatine can anaerobically donate a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP during the first two to seven seconds following an intense muscular or neuronal effort. Conversely, excess ATP can be used during a period of low effort to convert creatine to phosphocreatine. The reversible phosphorylation of creatine is catalyzed by several creatine kinases. Particularly, PCr makes the energy of phosphoryl bonds of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) available at the myofibrillar creatine kinase that allows myocardium contraction. Supplementation with PCr was, therefore, suggested as potentially beneficial in patients with acute and chronic myocardial ischaemic injury. Phosphocreatine has been tried in the treatment of cardiac disorders and has been added to cardioplegic solutions. Phosphocreatine is used intravenously in hospitals in some parts of the world for cardiovascular problems under the name Neoton and also used by some professional athletes, as it is not a controlled substance.

Raltitrexed belongs to a group of medicines known as antimetabolites. It is used to treat cancer of the colon and rectum. It may also be used to treat other kinds of cancer, as determined by your doctor. Raltitrexed blocks an enzyme needed by the cell to live. This interferes with the growth of cancer cells, which are eventually destroyed. Since the growth of normal body cells may also be affected by raltitrexed, other effects will also occur. Some of these may be serious and must be reported to your doctor. Other effects, like hair loss, may not be serious but may cause concern. Raltitrexed inhibits thymidylate synthase (TS) leading to DNA fragmentation and cell death. It is transported into cells via a reduced folate carrier. Inside the cell Raltitrexed is extensively polyglutamated, which enhances thymidylate synthase inhibitory power and duration. Inhibition of this enzyme results in decreased synthesis of thymidine triphosphate which is required for DNA synthesis. Raltitrexed is used for the treatment of malignant neoplasm of colon and rectum. Although raltitrexed is not approved by the US FDA, the drug was licensed in Canada and some European countries.

(R)-Sulindac is the (R)-enantiomer of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Sulindac, that is marketed in the U.S. by Merck as Clinoril. Sulindac is a prodrug, derived from sulfinylindene, that is converted in vivo to an active sulfide compound by liver methionine sulfoxide reductases (Msr). The (Msr) family of enzymes includes two major classes, MsrA and MsrB, that specifically reduce the S- and R-epimers of Sulindac. Reduction of (R)-Sulindac to Sulindac Sulfide catalyzed by methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr)-B. The oxidation of both epimers to sulindac sulfone is catalyzed primarily by the microsomal cytochrome P450 (P450) system. (S)-Sulindac increases the activity of the P450 system better than (R)-sulindac, but both epimers increase primarily the enzymes that oxidize (R)-sulindac. Both epimers can protect normal lung cells against oxidative damage and enhance the killing of lung cancer cells exposed to oxidative stress.

Sucrosofate (sucrose octasulfate) is a class of organic compounds known as disaccharide sulfates carrying one or more sulfate group on a sugar unit. It is used to encapsulate some anticancer drugs in liposomes allowing for highly active formulations against solid tumors and immunotargeting to cancer-overexpressing cell surface receptors. ONIVYDE (liposomal irinotecan) for intravenous use encapsulates an aqueous space containing irinotecan in a gelated or precipitated state as the sucrose octasulfate salt was initially approved by FDA in 1996 for treatment of pancreatic cancer. Sucrose octasulfate (SOS), a chemical analogue of heparin, has been demonstrated to activate fibroblast growth factors signalling pathways and SOS-mediated dimerization of FGF1 was observed. SOS can suppress thrombin generation in plasma that suggests a potential for oversulfated disaccharides in controlling heparin cofactor II -regulated thrombin generation.
