Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Homo sapiens trans-1,4-bis(2-chlorobenzaminomethyl)cyclohexane dihydrochloride, i.e. AY9944, is a competitive inhibitor of DHCR7 enzyme activity and inductor of DHCR7 expression. The DHCR7 expression is also activated by antipsychotic drugs, e.g. clozapine, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, and antidepressants such as imipramine, overview up
