Descripción

General description

Thiorphan, also called DL-mercapto-2-benzylpropanoyl-glycine is a specific and potent inhibitor of enkephalinase in nanomolar concentrations. It is an inhibitor of neutral endopeptidase. It interacts with cluster of differentiation 10 (CD10) in bone marrow cells and may modulate hematopoiesis. Thiorphan is a safe drugprescribed for diarrhea. It prevents cortical damage in newborn mice and is a potent agent for treating cerebral palsy.(CP)

Application

DL-Thiorphan has been used to evaluate the activity of NEP-dependent neutral endopeptidase. DL-Thiorphan has also been used for determining NEP enzymatic activity using fluorimetric assays.

Biochem/physiol Actions
