General description

5-Methylisatin is an inhibitor of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) receptor coupled with guanylyl cyclase (GC).

Application

5-Methylisatin was used as an internal standard during the determination of isatin (indole-2, 3-
dione) in body fluids by capillary column gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC—MS).
Reactant for preparation of:
  • Antimycobacterial agents
  • Promoters of central nervous system (CNS) depression in mice
  • Inhibitors of TAK1 kinase
  • Anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) agent
  • Potent herpes simplex virus (HSV) inhibitors
  • Antimicrobial agents
  • IKKβ inhibitors
  • Potential drug to combat human immunodeficiency virus-tuberculosis (HIV-TB) coinfection
  • Cyclooxygenase 1/2 (COX-1/2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitors
  • Antibacterial and anticancer agents
