Alfuzosin is a post-synaptic α1-adrenergic receptor antagonist commonly used to improve lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).{18261,18269} It displays high-affinity with non-selectivity for the three known human α1 adrenoceptors (pKi = 8.0, 8.0, and 8.5 for α1A, α1B, and α1D, respectively).{18268} Consistent with a role for α1 adrenoceptors in mediating contraction of smooth muscle, alfuzosin was first described as having anti-hypertensive effects with peripheral vasodilator properties.{18261} In patients with BPH, alfuzosin increases mean urinary flow rate and decreases residual volume.{18269} Alfuzosin produces minimal vasodilatory and sexual function side effects.{18262,18266,18267}

    CAY10512 – 10 mg

    The nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) regulates the expression of numerous genes involved in immunity and inflammation, cellular stress responses, growth, and apoptosis. Resveratrol, a polyphenolic trans-stilbene, is a known inhibitor of the activation of NF-κB and exhibits activity against a wide variety of cancer cells. CAY10512 is a substituted trans-stilbene analog of resveratrol that is 100-fold more potent as measured by antioxidant activity. The IC50 value for inhibition of TNFα-induced activation of NF-κB by CAY10512 is 0.15 µM compared to 20 µM by resveratrol.{14545}
