(11 beta)-Isomer Menogaril

A semisynthetic anthracycline antibiotic (ANTIBIOTICS, ANTHRACYCLINE) with the amino sugar on the D ring. It displays broad-spectrum antineoplastic activity against a variety of tumors.

(11 alpha)-Isomer Hydrocortisone

The main glucocorticoid secreted by the adrenal cortex. Its synthetic counterpart is used, either as an injection or topically, in the treatment of inflammation, allergy, collagen diseases, asthma, adrenocortical deficiency, shock, and some neoplastic conditions.

(1(S*(S*)),2 alpha,4 beta)-Isomer Fosinopril

A phosphinic acid-containing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor that is effective in the treatment of hypertension. It is a prodrug that is converted to its active metabolite fosinoprilat.

(1(S*(R*)),2 alpha,4 beta)-Isomer Fosinopril

A phosphinic acid-containing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor that is effective in the treatment of hypertension. It is a prodrug that is converted to its active metabolite fosinoprilat.

(1(S*(R*)),2 alpha,4 alpha)-(D-Pro)-Isomer Fosinopril

A phosphinic acid-containing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor that is effective in the treatment of hypertension. It is a prodrug that is converted to its active metabolite fosinoprilat.

(1 alpha,2 alpha,9 beta,10 alpha)-Isomer Cyproterone Acetate

An agent with anti-androgen and progestational properties. It shows competitive binding with dihydrotestosterone at androgen receptor sites.

(1 alpha,2 alpha)-Isomer Cyproterone Acetate

An agent with anti-androgen and progestational properties. It shows competitive binding with dihydrotestosterone at androgen receptor sites.

(1 alpha(S*))-Isomer Lovastatin

A fungal metabolite isolated from cultures of Aspergillus terreus. The compound is a potent anticholesteremic agent. It inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HYDROXYMETHYLGLUTARYL COA REDUCTASES), which is the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis. It also stimulates the production of low-density lipoprotein receptors in the liver.

(+,-)-Isomer Celiprolol

A cardioselective beta-1-adrenergic antagonist that may act as a partial agonist at some adrenergic sites.

(1S)-Isomer Camphor

A bicyclic monoterpene ketone found widely in plant (primarily the camphor tree, Cinnamomum camphora). Natural camphor is used topically as a skin antipruritic and as an anti-infective agent.
