L-NAME requires hydrolysis of the methyl ester by cellular esterases to become a fully functional inhibitor (L-NNA).{5433} L-NNA exhibits some selectivity for inhibition of neuronal and endothelial isoforms. It exhibits Ki values of 15 nM, 39 nM, and 4.4 µM for nNOS (bovine), eNOS (human), and iNOS (mouse), respectively.{5344,1857,5648} The reported Ki value for the inhibition of iNOS ranges from 4-65 µM.{1857,1901} L-NAME inhibits cGMP formation in endothelial cells with an IC50 of 3.1 µM (in the presence of 30 µM arginine) and reverses the vasodilation effects of acetylcholine in rat aorta rings with an EC50 of 0.54 µM.{1211,1855}

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are key regulators of cell cycle progression and are therefore promising targets for cancer therapy. (R)-Roscovitine is a potent inhibitor of Cdk2/cyclin E with an IC50 value of 0.1 µM.{14988} It also inhibits Cdk7/cyclin H, Cdk5/p35, and cell division cycle (cdc)/cyclin B with IC50 values of 0.49, 0.16, and 0.65 µM, respectively.{14987,14988,14991} (R)-Roscovitine inhibits the growth of rapidly proliferating cells with an average IC50 value of 15.2 µM against a panel of 19 human tumor cell lines.{14988} In murine models of polycystic kidney disease, (R)-roscovitine effectively inhibited disease progression at doses of 50-100 mg/kg.{14564}

The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.
