Biochem/physiol Actions

Furafylline (1,8-dimethyl-3-(2′ -furfuryl)methylxanthine) is a xanthine derivative. It is preferred in treating asthma. It serves as a N3-demethylation inhibitor of caffeine. Furafylline does not show much effect on human monooxygenase activities. It is considered as an efficient bronchodilator and as an inhibitor of anaphylactic reactions, when compared to theophylline.
Furafylline is a methyl xanthine derivative with longer duration of action than theophylline and an inhibitor of cytochrome P4501A2.

The metabolism of 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) was investigated in primary human and rat hepatocytes. The genotoxic metabolites 2-(hydroxyamino)-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (HONH-MeIQx) and 2-(hydroxyamino)-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (HONH-PhIP), which are formed by cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2), were detected as stable N(2)-glucuronide and N(2)- and N(3)-glucuronide

From case reports of patients treated with the tetracyclic antidepressant drug maprotiline, it appears that this drug is subject to polymorphic metabolism. Thus, we studied formation of the major maprotiline metabolite desmethylmaprotiline to identify the human cytochrome P-450 enzymes (CYP)

고리형 뉴클레오타이드를 위한 생체 활성 저분자

고리형 AMP(cAMP), 고리형 GMP(cGMP), 고리형 ADP-리보스를 포함하여 고리형 뉴클레오타이드는 GPCR 활성화에 의해 개시된 세포내 이벤트의 2차 전달자로서 광범위하게 연구되었습니다. cAMP는 주로 cAMP 의존성 단백질 인산화효소(PKA)의 활성화를 통해 모든 진핵생물 세포에서 세포 기능을 변형시키지만 cAMP 개폐 이온 채널 및 cAMP에 의해 직접 활성화되는 구아닌 뉴클레오타이드 교환 인자를 통해서도 변형시킵니다.
