Bioactivity | Methyl-L-NIO (compound 2d) hydrochloride is a potential selective inhibitor (IC50: 70 μM) of dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase hDDAH. Methyl-L-NIO also has inhibitory activity against NO synthase. The inhibition rates of Methyl-L-NIO on different isoforms of NO synthase at a concentration of 100 μM are 77% (nNOS), 20% (eNOS), and 72% (iNOS) respectively; the inhibition rates at a concentration of 1 mM are 100% (nNOS), 85% (eNOS), 100% (iNOS)[1]. |
