Benazepril-d5 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of benazepril (Item No. 23804). Benazepril is a prodrug of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor benazeprilat (Item No. 21796).{38021} It is metabolized to benazeprilat by hepatic esterases. Benazepril inhibits the in vitro enzymatic activity of partially purified ACE isolated from rabbit lung (IC50 = 2 nM).{26178} It decreases the triglyceride and total cholesterol levels in normotensive rats when administered at a dose of 30 mg/kg and decreases aortic atherosclerosis in cholesterol-fed rabbits when administered at a dose of 3 mg/kg per day.{41556} Benazepril (0.1-10 mg/kg per day) reduces blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats.{41557} It also decreases proteinuria in cats with chronic kidney disease when administered at doses ranging from 0.5 to 1 mg/kg per day.{41558} Formulations containing benazepril have been used to treat hypertension, congestive heart failure, and chronic kidney disease in both human and veterinary medicine.

The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal. SC-1 is a small molecule activator of stem cell renewal that allows the propagation of OG2 mES cells for at least 10 passages in an undifferentiated state.{14533} The activity of SC-1 is mediated by the combined inhibition of RasGAP and ERK1 with Kd values of 98 and 212 nM, respectively.{14533} Inhibition of RasGAP increases Ras signaling via the PI3-kinase pathway which promotes self-renewal, whereas inhibition of ERK blocks differentiation.

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}
