Biochem/physiol Actions

ES936 is a very potent and selective inhibitor of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1). ES936 inhibits superoxide scavenging by NQO1 in tumor and cardiovascular cells. NQO1 is highly expressed in pancreatic cancers, and ES936 inhibits proliferation of pancreatic tumor lines Mia PaCa and BxPC-3 with nanomolar IC50 values.
ES936 is a very potent and selective inhibitor of NQO1.

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is involved in blood pressure (BP) regulation through the production of nitric oxide. Sirtuin I (SIRT1), an NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, promotes vascular relaxation through deacetylation and activation of eNOS. β-Lapachone (βL) increases the cellular NAD(+)/NADH
