Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine both pharmacological and toxicological effects of anti-cancer drug cisplatin involve TrxR inactivation, and the large enhancement on cisplatin cure rate in H22 ascites model by using amifostine is, at least in part, ascribed to its selective modulation on TrxR Mus musculus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
cisplatin at pharmacological doses inhibits TrxR activity in both ascitic hepatoma 22 cells and kidney, leading to suppression of H22 cells proliferation along with nephrotoxicity. Amifostine, a clinical used cytoprotective agent, protected against CDDP-induced TrxR inactivation in kidney but not in H22 cells Mus musculus
